Question 1

Ved is 5/12 of Harper's age. After 24 years, Ved will be 1/2 of Harper's age. Find Ved's present age.
Let Harper = x, then Ved = 5/12x
After 24 years: 5/12x + 24 = 1/2(x + 24)
Solving gives x = 72, so Ved = 30

Question 2

Vatsal and Karuna are twins. If Vatsal is 23 years old now, how old was Karuna 2 years ago?
Twins have the same age. 2 years ago, both were 23 - 2 = 21

Question 3

In a family, Christopher is the parent of Sarah, and Leon is the grandparent. Christopher is 2 times as old as Sarah, and Leon is 23 years older than Christopher. What is the age of Christopher?
Let Sarah (child) = 7
Then Christopher (parent) = 2 × 7 = 14
Then Leon (grandparent) = 14 + 23 = 37

Question 4

Benjamin is 31 years older than Urvashi and is now 44 years old. How old was Benjamin 12 years ago?
Current age of Benjamin = 44
12 years ago = 44 - 12 = 32

Question 5

Natalie is twice as old as Madhav was 6 years ago. The difference between their ages is 15 years. How old is Natalie?
Let Madhav's current age = x
Then 6 years ago, Madhav was (x - 6)
Natalie = 2(x - 6) = 2x - 12
Difference: Natalie - x = (2x - 12) - x = x - 12
Given difference = 15
So x - 12 = 15 → x = 27 = 27
Then Natalie = 2(27 - 6) = 42

Question 6

Grace is half as old as Saachi was when Grace was 10 years old. If Saachi is now 31 years old, find Grace's current age.
When Grace was 10 years old, that was 11 years ago
At that time, Saachi was 31 - 11 = 20 years old
Now Grace is half of 20
Therefore, Grace's current age = 20 ÷ 2 = 10

Question 7

Lucas is 38 years older than Scarlett and is now 56 years old. How old was Lucas 6 years ago?
Current age of Lucas = 56
6 years ago = 56 - 6 = 50

Question 8

Ramesh is 3 times as old as Omkar. 7 years ago, the sum of their ages was 86. How old is Omkar now?
Let Omkar = x, then Ramesh = 3x
7 years ago: (3x - 7) + (x - 7) = 86
(3+1)x - 14 = 86
(4)x = 100
x = 25

Question 9

Parul is 3 times as old as his son Julia. After 7 years, the sum of their ages will be 54. How old is Julia now?
Let son's age = x, then father's age = 3x
After 7 years: (3x+7) + (x+7) = 54
(3+1)x + 14 = 54
(4)x = 40
x = 10

Question 10

The average age of a family of 5 members (Ranveer, Savita, Victor, Felix, Sanjit) is 26.2 years. If Felix (age 23) leaves the family, what will be the new average age?
Total age = 26.2 × 5 = 131
After Felix leaves: 131 - 23 = 108
New average = 108 ÷ 4 = 27

Question 11

In a family of four: Aish, Anup, Damini, Adrian. The youngest is 9 and the eldest is 27. The other two members are 23 and 25. What is the average age of the family?
Sum of all ages = 9 + 23 + 25 + 27 = 84
Average = 84 ÷ 4 = 21

Question 12

Jaideep is 6 years older than Sarthak, Sarthak is 5 years older than Bina, and the sum of their ages is 91. What is Jaideep's age?
Let Bina = 25
Then Sarthak = 25 + 5 = 30
And Jaideep = 30 + 6 = 36
Check sum: 36 + 30 + 25 = 91 ✓

Question 13

In a family of four: Naina, Satish, Vivek, Kai. The eldest is 23, youngest is 8. The average age is 18. What is the sum of the ages of the other two members?
Total sum = 18 × 4 = 72
Eldest + youngest = 23 + 8 = 31
Sum of other two = 72 - 31 = 41

Question 14

In a family, Pranav : Adeline = 7:3 and Adeline : Shanti = 4:1. The sum of their ages is 172. Find Adeline's age.
Let common ratio for Adeline be 12
Then Pranav:Adeline:Shanti = 28:12:3
Sum of ratios = 43
Each unit = 172 ÷ 43 = 4
Adeline's age = 12 × 4 = 48

Question 15

Hans and Veena are twins. If Hans is 35 years old now, how old was Veena 7 years ago?
Twins have the same age. 7 years ago, both were 35 - 7 = 28

Question 16

Vikas is 38 years older than Naina and is now 47 years old. How old was Vikas 14 years ago?
Current age of Vikas = 47
14 years ago = 47 - 14 = 33

Question 17

Owen is twice as old as Max was 3 years ago. The difference between their ages is 3 years. How old is Owen?
Let Max's current age = x
Then 3 years ago, Max was (x - 3)
Owen = 2(x - 3) = 2x - 6
Difference: Owen - x = (2x - 6) - x = x - 6
Given difference = 3
So x - 6 = 3 → x = 9 = 9
Then Owen = 2(9 - 3) = 12

Question 18

Sourav is twice as old as Swati was when Yashaswi was as old as Sourav is now. If Yashaswi is currently 47 years old, find Sourav's age.
When Yashaswi was 54 years old, that was 7 years ago
At that time, Swati was 27
Now Sourav = 2 × 27 = 54 ✓

Question 19

Rylee is 3 times as old as his son Ramesh. After 5 years, the sum of their ages will be 90. How old is Ramesh now?
Let son's age = x, then father's age = 3x
After 5 years: (3x+5) + (x+5) = 90
(3+1)x + 10 = 90
(4)x = 80
x = 20

Question 20

Naman is 10 years old in 2020. In what year was Naman born?
2020 - 10 = 2010
