The avarge boys of 15 years. If their ages aur in the ratio 3:5:7 find the age of youngest boy?

Answer»

Let their ages be 'X'.

It is given that the average of the ages of the 3 BOYS is 15.

The ratio of their is 3:5:7.


=> (3x+5x+7x)/3 = 15

=> 15x/3 = 15

=> 5x = 15

=> x = 3


There ages will be:

3x = 3(3) = 9

5x = 5(3) = 15

7x = 7(3) = 21


Therefore, the age of the youngest BOY is 9.
