Age Problem Solved :
A is 5 years elder than B who is now 4 times as old as C. C is now 7 years old. What was A’s age when C was born?
a) 16 b) 26 c) 36 d) 20
Answer : b) 26
Solution :
Let age of A be X.
Then, age of B = X-5
C's age = 7
B's Age = 4 times as C
i.e., X - 5 = 4 x 7
X = 33.
Hence, A's age when C was born = 33 - 7 = 26.
