Test: Problems on Ages - 2 - Question 2

The age of Rohit is 25% more than the age of Sachin. If the sum of their ages is 45 years, what is the difference between their ages?

Detailed Solution for Test: Problems on Ages - 2 - Question 2

To find the difference between Rohit and Sachin's ages:

- Let's say Sachin's age is x years.
- Rohit's age is 25% more, which is 1.25x.
- Given, their total age is 45 years: x + 1.25x = 45.
- 2.25x = 45
- x = 20
there difference 1.25x - x = 0.25x = 0.25 x 20 = 5

Test: Problems on Ages - 2 - Question 3

The ages of A, B and C are ‘X’ years,  ‘X + 50’ years and ‘X – 20’ years respectively, if the average age of all three is 40 years, what is the value of X?

Test: Problems on Ages - 2 - Question 4

If the age of Mohit is 250% more than the age of Jeenat and the sum of their ages is 54 years, what is the age of Jeenat?

Detailed Solution for Test: Problems on Ages - 2 - Question 4

Let the age of Jeenat be xxx years.

Since Mohit's age is 250% more than Jeenat's, Mohit's age will be:

x+2.5x=3.5x

The sum of their ages is 54 years, so:

x+3.5x=54

Simplifying:

4.5x=54

Thus, Jeenat's age is 12 years.

The correct answer is:

3. 12 years.
