  • Question
  • The average age of women and child workers in a factory was 15 yr. The average age of all the 16 children was 8 yr and average age of women workers was 22 yr. If 10 women workers were married, then the number of unmarried women workers was.


  • Options
  • A. 16
  • B. 12
  • C. 8
  • D. 6

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    Let the number of women workers be Y.

    Then, 22y + 16 x 8 = 15 (16+y)
    ? 22y + 128 = 240 + 15y
    ? 22y - 15y= 240 - 128
    ? y = 16

    ? Unmarried women workers = 16 - 10 = 6
