The average of 11 players of a cricket team is decreased by 2 months when two of them aged 17 years and 20 years are replaced by two new players. The average age of the new players is-

A. 17 years 1 month

B. 17 years 7 months

C. 17 years 11 months

D. 18 years 3 months

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Total age decreased
= (11 × 2) months
= 22 months
= 1 year 10 months
∴ Average age of two new players
$$\left( {\frac{{{\text{35 years 2 months}}}}{2}} \right)$$
= 17 years 7 months
