Question

The average of x,y and z is 25. x is as much more than the average as y is less than the average. Find the value of z.

• A. 25
• B. 28
• C. 32
• D. 35

Answer 1

The correct option is A 25

Let y be ‘a’ less than 25 so that x will be ‘a’ more than 25.
Thus, $\frac{\left(}{\left(25-a\right)+\left(25+a\right)+z}=25$


Solving, z = 25
