    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the youngest person leaves and is not replaced by another person, it means the mean age is no longer be 20.2 and the median is no longer is 19.

    There are 4 students left, so

    Mean: will inscrease, when number of terms descrease (only 4)

    Media: will descrease, when we have to calculate the average value for term number 2 and 3, not only term number 3 before the youngest person leaves.
