    C Quantity I ≥ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Quantity II ≥ Quantity I Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Quantity I = Quantity II or Relation cannot be established Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Quantity I : Total ages of 8 members = 26 × 8 = 208 years. Total ages when family doctor is included = 28 × 9 = 252 years. ∴ Age of family doctor = 252 -208 = 44 years. Quantity II : Total ages of 11 players = 24 × 11 = 264 years. Total ages when their coach is included = 25 × 12 = 300 years. ∴ Age of coach = 300 -264 = 36 years.
