Question 11
Anil is as much younger to Vivek as he is older to Tarun. If the total of the ages of Vivek and Tarun is 48 years, how old is Anil?
Solution
Let Anil's age = $$x$$ years
Let Anil is $$n$$ years elder than Tarun and $$n$$ years younger than Vivek.
=> Tarun's age = $$(x-n)$$ years
and Vivek's age = $$(x+n)$$ years
Sum of ages of Vivek and Tarun = $$(x-n)+(x+n)=48$$
=> $$2x=48$$
=> $$x=\frac{48}{2}=24$$ years
=> Ans - (C)
