Answer:

52 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the mean age of 5 people in that room is 28 years,

∴ Sum₍₅₎= (28×5) years

             = 140 years

Then, one person enters the room which makes the mean age 32 years.

∴Sum₍₆₎= (32×6)years

             = 192 years

∴The age of the person who enters the room= (192 - 140) years

                                                                             = 52 years
