C Correct answer
Explanation

Initial average age of 11 students = 20 years, so total age = 11 × 20 = 220 years. When teacher is added (total 12 people), new average = 20 × 1.10 = 22 years. New total age = 12 × 22 = 264 years. Teacher's age = 264 - 220 = 44 years. The teacher's age raises the average by 10% because the teacher is significantly older than the student average.
