Question : If the difference between the average of x, y and y, z is 12, then the difference between x and z is:
Option 1: 24
Option 2: 48
Option 3: 12
Option 4: 6
Correct Answer: 24
Solution :
Given: The difference between the average of (x, y) and (y, z) is 12.
According to the question,
$\frac{\text{x+y}}{2}$–$\frac{\text{y+z}}{2}$ = 12
⇒ x + y – y – z = 24
⇒ x – z = 24
Hence, the correct answer is 24.
