Q. The average weight of three boys P, Q and R is 54 kg, while the average weight of three boys Q, S and T is 60 kg. What is the average weight of P, Q, R, S and T?- Published on 07 Jul 17a. 66.4 kg
b. 63.2 kg
c. 58.8 kg
d. Data Inadequate
e. None of these
ANSWER: Data Inadequate
Total weight of (P + Q + R) = {54*3} kg = 162 kg
Total weight of(Q + S + T) = (60 *3) kg = 180 kg
Adding both, we get : P + 2Q + S + R + T = (162 + 180) kg = 342 kg
So, to find the average weight of P, Q, R, S & T, we ought to know Q's weight, which is not given.
The data is inadequate.
