The average age of a jury of 5 is 40.

∴The total age of the members of the jury is (5 × 40) = 200.

A member aged 35 resigns.

Current total age of the jury of 4:

 = 200 – 35

 =165

A man aged 25 becomes a member of the jury.

New total age of the jury of 5:

 = 165 + 25

= 190

The new average age of the jury of 5 is:

= 190 ÷ 5

= 38
