The average weight of a group of boys is 30 kg. After a boy of weight 35 kg joins the group, the average weight of the group goes up by 1 kg. Find the number of boys in the group originally ?
Let the number of boys in the group originally be x. Total weight of the boys = 30x After the boy weighing 35 kg joins the group, total weight of boys = 30x + 35 So 30x + 35 + 31(x + 1) = > x = 4.
