A) 22 yr
B) 23 yr
C) 24 yr
D) 25 yr
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Average age of 11 member cricket team = x years \[\therefore \]Total age of cricket team = 11 x years. When captain aged 26 yr and wicketkeeper aged 26+3 = 29 yr are excluded. Total age of remaining 9 players\[=11x-(26+29)\] \[=(11x-55)\]years According to the question, \[\frac{11x-55}{9}=x-1\] or, \[11x-55=9x-9=2x=44\] \[\therefore \] \[x=22\]yrYou need to login to perform this action.
