Average

Q1: The average monthly income of P and Q is Rs. 5050. The average monthly income of Q and R is Rs. 6250 and the average monthly income of P and R is Rs. 5200. The monthly income of P is:

A 3500

B 4000

C 4050

D 5000

ANS:B - 4000

Let P, Q and R represent their respective monthly incomes. Then, we have: P + Q = (5050 x 2) = 10100 .... (i) Q + R = (6250 x 2) = 12500 .... (ii) P + R = (5200 x 2) = 10400 .... (iii) Adding (i), (ii) and (iii), we get:  2(P + Q + R) = 33000  or   P + Q + R = 16500 .... (iv) Subtracting (ii) from (iv), we get P = 4000.  P's monthly income = Rs. 4000.
