Question 1
The average age of 5 people is 37. If Zoey (age 24) leaves and a new person joins, the average becomes 43. Find the age of the new person.
Initial total = 37 × 5 = 185
After Zoey leaves: 185 - 24 = 161
New total = 43 × 5 = 215
New person's age = 215 - (161) = 54
After Zoey leaves: 185 - 24 = 161
New total = 43 × 5 = 215
New person's age = 215 - (161) = 54
