Answer to Q125

The average age of a couple married four years ago was 25 years then. The average age of the family consisting of husband, wife and a child now is 20 years. What is the child’s present age?

Let the age of father 4 years ago be X
Let the age of mother 4 years ago be Y

The average age of a couple married four years ago was 25 years then.

So, (x + Y) ÷ 2 = 25
X + Y = 25 * 2
X + Y = 50 (eqn 1)

The average age of the family consisting of husband, wife and a child now is 20 years

Age
of father after 4 years is then X + 4
Age of mother after 4 years is then Y + 4
Let age of child now be Z

So, ((X + 4) + (Y+4) + Z) ÷ 3 = 20
X + 4 + Y + 4 + Z = 20 * 3
X + Y + Z + 8 = 60
X + Y + Z = 60 - 8
X + Y + Z = 52 (eqn 2)

putting (eqn 1) into (eqn 2)
50 + Z = 52
Z = 52 - 50
Z = 2
