Question 1

Pooja is twice as old as Yara was 7 years ago. The difference between their ages is 12 years. How old is Pooja?
Let Yara's current age = x
Then 7 years ago, Yara was (x - 7)
Pooja = 2(x - 7) = 2x - 14
Difference: Pooja - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 12
So x - 14 = 12 → x = 26 = 26
Then Pooja = 2(26 - 7) = 38

Question 2

Gajendra is twice as old as Falguni was 4 years ago. The difference between their ages is 12 years. How old is Gajendra?
Let Falguni's current age = x
Then 4 years ago, Falguni was (x - 4)
Gajendra = 2(x - 4) = 2x - 8
Difference: Gajendra - x = (2x - 8) - x = x - 8
Given difference = 12
So x - 8 = 12 → x = 20 = 20
Then Gajendra = 2(20 - 4) = 32

Question 3

Bennett is twice as old as Justin was 5 years ago. The difference between their ages is 28 years. How old is Bennett?
Let Justin's current age = x
Then 5 years ago, Justin was (x - 5)
Bennett = 2(x - 5) = 2x - 10
Difference: Bennett - x = (2x - 10) - x = x - 10
Given difference = 28
So x - 10 = 28 → x = 38 = 38
Then Bennett = 2(38 - 5) = 66

Question 4

Chitra is twice as old as Wyatt was 6 years ago. The difference between their ages is 9 years. How old is Chitra?
Let Wyatt's current age = x
Then 6 years ago, Wyatt was (x - 6)
Chitra = 2(x - 6) = 2x - 12
Difference: Chitra - x = (2x - 12) - x = x - 12
Given difference = 9
So x - 12 = 9 → x = 21 = 21
Then Chitra = 2(21 - 6) = 30

Question 5

Joseph is twice as old as Pratibha was 6 years ago. The difference between their ages is 12 years. How old is Joseph?
Let Pratibha's current age = x
Then 6 years ago, Pratibha was (x - 6)
Joseph = 2(x - 6) = 2x - 12
Difference: Joseph - x = (2x - 12) - x = x - 12
Given difference = 12
So x - 12 = 12 → x = 24 = 24
Then Joseph = 2(24 - 6) = 36

Question 6

Hazel is twice as old as Raveena was 5 years ago. The difference between their ages is 23 years. How old is Hazel?

Hazel = 2(x - 5) = 2x - 10
Difference: Hazel - x = (2x - 10) - x = x - 10
Given difference = 23
So x - 10 = 23 → x = 33 = 33
Then Hazel = 2(33 - 5) = 56

Andre = 2(x - 3) = 2x - 6
Difference: Andre - x = (2x - 6) - x = x - 6
Given difference = 38
So x - 6 = 38 → x = 44 = 44
Then Andre = 2(44 - 3) = 82

Question 8

Alice is twice as old as Surbhi was 7 years ago. The difference between their ages is 12 years. How old is Alice?

Difference: Alice - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 12
So x - 14 = 12 → x = 26 = 26
Then Alice = 2(26 - 7) = 38
