The average age of a class of 30 students is 15 years. If the teacher's age is included, the average age becomes 16 years. What is the teacher's age?

  • A.45 years
  • B.46 years
  • C.47 years
  • D.48 years

Answer: B

Sum of ages of 30 students = 30 × 15 = 450 years.

When the teacher is included, there are 31 people and the average age is 16.

Sum of ages of 30 students + teacher = 31 × 16 = 496 years.

Teacher's age = 496 - 450 = 46 years.
