The correct Answer is:
To find the average age of the six members A, B, C, D, E, and F in the family, we need to analyze the information provided in the statements. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Average Formula**: The average age of the six members can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Average} = \frac{A + B + C + D + E + F}{6} \] Therefore, to find the average, we need the total sum of their ages \(A + B + C + D + E + F\). 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: - Statement I states that the average age of D and E is 30 years. - This implies: \[ \frac{D + E}{2} = 30 \implies D + E = 60 \] 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: - Statement II states that the average age of A, B, C, and F is 50 years. - This implies: \[ \frac{A + B + C + F}{4} = 50 \implies A + B + C + F = 200 \] 4. **Analyzing Statement III**: - Statement III states that the average age of A, B, D, and E is 40 years. - This implies: \[ \frac{A + B + D + E}{4} = 40 \implies A + B + D + E = 160 \] 5. **Combining Statements**: - From Statement I, we have \(D + E = 60\). - From Statement III, we can substitute \(D + E\) into the equation: \[ A + B + 60 = 160 \implies A + B = 100 \] 6. **Finding Total Age**: - Now we can substitute \(A + B\) into Statement II: \[ A + B + C + F = 200 \implies 100 + C + F = 200 \implies C + F = 100 \] 7. **Total Age of All Members**: - Now we can find the total age of all six members: \[ A + B + C + D + E + F = (A + B) + (C + F) + (D + E) = 100 + 100 + 60 = 260 \] 8. **Calculating the Average**: - Finally, we can calculate the average age: \[ \text{Average} = \frac{A + B + C + D + E + F}{6} = \frac{260}{6} \approx 43.33 \] ### Conclusion: The average age of the six members A, B, C, D, E, and F is approximately 43.33 years.
