Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 19 years

Given:

Average age of 20 persons = 18

A new person of 39 years

Formula used:

Sum of ages = Average age × Number of persons

Calculation:

Sum of age of all the 20 persons = 20 × 18 = 360 years

After a 39 years person has joined

Sum of all 21 persons = 360 + 39 = 399 years

New average of all 21 persons = 399/21 = 19 years

The new average age of all persons is 19 years
