A. 30 years

B. 33 years

C. 28 years

D. 35 years

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Average of 20 students = 12 years
Total age of 20 students
= 20 × 12
= 240 years
When teacher included average become 13 years
Now, total age 20 students and teacher
= 13 × 21 = 273 years
∴ Age of teacher
= 273 - 240
= 33 years

    New average = 13 years
    Among 20 students, the age distibuted from teacher's age = 20*1 = 20
    Teacher age = 20+13 = 33
