Four people: Louis, Marcus, Paresh, Uma
Given:
1. The sum of all four ages is 113
2. Louis + Marcus = 42
3. Uma is 7 years older than Paresh
4. Uma is 39 years old
Find Louis's age.
Step 1: From clue 4, Uma = 39
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, Louis = 16
Complete ages: Louis=16, Marcus=26, Paresh=32, Uma=39
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, Louis = 16
Complete ages: Louis=16, Marcus=26, Paresh=32, Uma=39
