Given: Number of members earlier = 120

⇒ Total age of all the members earlier = 120 x 60.7 = 7284      …..(i)

⇒ Total age of all the members presently = 150 x 56.3 = 8445        …..(ii)

⇒ Total age of new members = (ii) – (I)

⇒ 8445 – 7284 = 1161

∴ Average age of newly joined members = 1161/30 = 38.7
