mean age = \(\frac{\text{sum of ages}}{\text{no. of men}}\)
50 = \9\frac{sum}{R}\)
sum = 50R.....(1)
Sum of ages of the men that left = 55 + 63 = 188
remaining sum = 50R - 118
remaining no. of men = R - 2
now mean age = 50 - 1 = 49 years
49 = \(\frac{50R - 118}{R - 2}\)
49(R - 2) = 50R - 118
49R - 50R = -188 - 98
-R = -20
R = 20
