let age of Tanya be x
so, age of rajesh =2x
age of suresh =4x
so x+2x+3x=56
7x=56
x=8
so ages are,
Tanya 7years
suresh 32years
rakesh 16years

Let the age of suresh be x years ,
then age of Rajesh = x/2
and age of Tanya = x/4

x+(x/2)+(x/4) = 56
4x+2x+x = 224
7x = 224
x = 32

Age of Rajesh
= x/2
= 16 years
