When I was married 10 years ago my wife is the 6th
member of the family. Today my father died and a baby born
to me. The average age of my family during my marriage is
same as today. What is the age of Father when he died?

Answer Posted / baby

et x be the avg age of each person in the family ten years
back...
so total age=6x
after 10 years i.e,now the total age of the family =6x+60
let grand father age as y
then the average of the family=(6x+60-y)/5
(bcoz grand father has expired and the new born baby has no
age at present)

according to the given question (6x+60-y)/5=x

bcoz x is the avg age bfore 10 years.

while calc the equation according to the presnt age we have
to add 10 to the result....


so the answer is 70
