The average age of the Indian cricket team playing the Coimbatore test is 28. The average age of 5 of the players is 26 and that of another set of 5 players, totally different from the first five, is 29. If it is the captain who was not included in either of these two groups, then find the age of the captain.
I know the basic way of solving this question, i.e. (28*11)-(26*5+29*5). Ans is 33
But, is there any other simpler approach to solve this type of question?
Thanks in advance.
