Directions: Study the following data carefully and answer the question.
Sales of books by a publisher (in thousands):
2019: 45, 2020: 60, 2021: 75, 2022: 50, 2023: 70
What is the average annual sale of books over the five years?
The average age of 40 students is 21 years. It was observed that while calculating the

A21.25 years
B21.22 years
C12.12 years
D23.84 years
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (A) 21.25 years
Explanation
The total age rises by 30 − 20 = 10 years, so the average rises by 10/40 = 0.25. Correct average = 21 + 0.25 = 21.25 years.
