Find the average age of the male employees if there are total 50 employees in the company.1. 35 years2. 42 years3. 38 years4. 28 years5. 30 years

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 35 years

Given:

Average age of all the employees in a company = 32 years.

The ratio of the average age of all female to average age of all male employees = 6 : 7.

 total employees in the company = 50

Formula Used:

Average = Sum of the value of the numbers/number of numbers

Calculation:

Let the average age of female and male be 6x and 7x respectively.

Total no. of employees = 50

No. of females = 50 × 60/100 = 30

Then, No. of males = 50 - 30 = 20

According to the question;

⇒ 32 × 50 = 6x × 30 + 7x × 20 

⇒ 1600 = 180x + 140x

⇒ 320x = 1600

⇒ x = 5

The average age of male = 7 × 5 = 35 years

∴ The average age of the male employees is 35 years.
