Question

A is two years older than b who is twice as old as
c. if the total ages of a, b and c be 27 then what is the age of b?

Answer 1

Let the b age be x
Then A age=x+2
C age=x/2
x+x+2+x/2=27
2x+2+x/2=27
4x+4+x=27×2
5x+4=54
5x=54-4
x=50/5
x=10
B age =10years
A age=10+2=12years
Cage=10/2=5years
