Given:
1. The sum of all four ages is 119
2. Pawan + Shivam = 44
3. Shanti is 5 years older than Manish
4. Shivam is 28 years old
Find Shanti's age.
Step 1: From clue 4, Shivam = 28
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, Shanti = 40
Complete ages: Pawan=16, Shivam=28, Manish=35, Shanti=40
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, Shanti = 40
Complete ages: Pawan=16, Shivam=28, Manish=35, Shanti=40
