Question 1

Levi is twice as old as Raelynn was 7 years ago. The difference between their ages is 15 years. How old is Levi?
Let Raelynn's current age = x
Then 7 years ago, Raelynn was (x - 7)
Levi = 2(x - 7) = 2x - 14
Difference: Levi - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 15
So x - 14 = 15 → x = 29 = 29
Then Levi = 2(29 - 7) = 44

Question 2

Vidya is twice as old as Tarun was 7 years ago. The difference between their ages is 14 years. How old is Vidya?
Let Tarun's current age = x
Then 7 years ago, Tarun was (x - 7)
Vidya = 2(x - 7) = 2x - 14
Difference: Vidya - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 14
So x - 14 = 14 → x = 28 = 28
Then Vidya = 2(28 - 7) = 42

Question 3

Abigail is twice as old as Charles was 7 years ago. The difference between their ages is 3 years. How old is Abigail?
Let Charles's current age = x
Then 7 years ago, Charles was (x - 7)
Abigail = 2(x - 7) = 2x - 14
Difference: Abigail - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 3
So x - 14 = 3 → x = 17 = 17
Then Abigail = 2(17 - 7) = 20

Question 4

Farhan is twice as old as Madison was 7 years ago. The difference between their ages is 2 years. How old is Farhan?
Let Madison's current age = x

Farhan = 2(x - 7) = 2x - 14
Difference: Farhan - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 2
So x - 14 = 2 → x = 16 = 16
Then Farhan = 2(16 - 7) = 18

Question 5

Jyoti = 2(x - 7) = 2x - 14
Difference: Jyoti - x = (2x - 14) - x = x - 14
Given difference = 28
So x - 14 = 28 → x = 42 = 42
Then Jyoti = 2(42 - 7) = 70
