The average weight of $A, B$ and $C$ is $84 \,kgs.$ If $D$ joins, the average weight now is $80 \,kgs$. If another person $E$ who is $3\, kgs$ heavier than $D$ replaces $A$ then the average weight of $B, C, D$ and $E$ becomes $79\, kgs.$ what is the weight of $A $ in $kg$ ?
A
$70$
B
$75$
C
$65$
D
$55$
Solution
Total weight of $A+B+C=84 \times 3=252 kgs$
$A+B+C+D=80 \times 4=320 kgs$
$D=68, E=68+3=71 kgs$
$B+C+D+E=79 \times 4=316 kg$
$B+C+D=316-71=245 kg$
$A=320-245=75 kgs$
