Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 60 years.

Understanding/Application

Average = Sum of age of all members/Total members

Sum of age of all members of school 1 = 50(66) = 3300

Sum of age of all members of school 2 = 60(55) = 3300

Total age of both groups = 6600

Total members of both groups = 50 + 60 = 110

Average = 6600/110 = 60
