Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Solution:
At the time of marriage, the average age of husband and wife is 23, so their combined age is 2 × 23 = 46.
After five years each spouse is 5 years older, so together they are 10 years older: 46 + 10 = 56.
Include the 1-year-old child: total age of the family = 56 + 1 = 57.
There are 3 family members, so the average age = 57 ÷ 3 = 19 years.
Answer: 19 years.
