Question 1
Four people: Abel, Suresh, Lars, Nora
Given:
1. The sum of all four ages is 113
2. Abel + Suresh = 46
3. Nora is 5 years older than Lars
4. Abel is 19 years old
Find Lars's age.
Step 1: From clue 4, Abel = 19
Step 2: Using clue 2, we can find the other person in that pair
Step 3: Using clue 3 and clue 1, we can determine all ages
Step 4: Therefore, Lars = 31
Complete ages: Abel=19, Suresh=27, Lars=31, Nora=36
Step 2: Using clue 2, we can find the other person in that pair
Step 3: Using clue 3 and clue 1, we can determine all ages
Step 4: Therefore, Lars = 31
Complete ages: Abel=19, Suresh=27, Lars=31, Nora=36
