The average age of husband and wife was 22 years when they were married five years back. What is the present average age of the family if they have a three year old child?

Solution

Five years ago:
Average of husband and wife = 22 ⇒ sum of ages then = 22 × 2 = 44

After 5 years, each becomes 5 years older:
New sum (husband + wife) = 44 + 5 + 5 = 54

Child’s age = 3 ⇒ total of family ages now = 54 + 3 = 57

Average age of family now = 57 ÷ 3 = 19 years
