Answer» Let the WEIGHT of Jaffar, Guna and Ashik be a, b and c Average weight of Jaffar, Guna and Ashik = Sum of weights/3 ⇒ 60 = (a + b + c)/3 ⇒ a + b + c = 180----(1) Also, Average weight of Jaffar and Guna = sum of weights/2 ⇒ 55 = (a + b)/2 ⇒ a + b = 110 ⇒ a = 110 – b----(2) Also, Average weight of Guna and Ashik = Sum of weights/2 ⇒ 50 = (b + c)/2 ⇒ b + c = 100 ⇒ c = 100 – b----(3) Now, substituting equation (2) and (3) in equation (1), ⇒ (110 – b) + b + (100 – b) = 180 ⇒ 210 – b = 180 ⇒ b = 30 ∴ The weight of Guna is = 30 kg |
