Question 1

A is 7 years older than B. A's age equals the cost price (₹100) and B's age equals the selling price when profit is 26%. Find A's age.
Given: A = cost price = 100, B = selling price = 126. Age difference matches: 100 - 126 = -26

Question 2

10 years ago, A was half as old as B. In 5 years, what will be the age difference between B and A?
10 years ago: A was 12, B was 14. Check: 12 = ½ × 14 ✓
Present ages: A = 22, B = 24
In 5 years: A = 27, B = 29
Age difference = |29 - 27| = 2
(Age difference stays constant over time = B - A = 2)

Question 3

In 4 years, Thomas will be twice as old as Omkar was 3 years ago. If Omkar is 18 now, how old is Thomas now?
In 4 years: Thomas=Thomas(now)+4, Omkar was 18-3=15 three years ago. Thomas(now)+4=2*15 => Thomas(now) = 2*15 - 4 = 26.

Question 4

William is 14, Hazel is 18. After 3 years, what is the ratio of their ages?
William: Hazel = 17:21, after 3 years.

Question 5

Colton and Madison together are 27. If Colton is 12, what is Madison's age?
Madison = 27 - 12 = 15

Question 6

Family: Connor, Emily, Vidhi, Allison. Average age is 12. What is the sum of ages?
Total = 12*4 = 48

Question 7

The sum of A and B's ages is 54. Twice A's age minus B's age is 21. Find A's age.
A + B = 54
2A - B = 21
Adding the two equations: (A + B) + (2A - B) = 54 + 21
3A = 75
A = 25
Verification: B = 54 - 25 = 29
2(25) - 29 = 21 = 21 ✓

Question 8

Priya is 16, Anup is 20. After 8 years, what is the ratio of their ages?
Priya: Anup = 24:28, after 8 years.

Question 9

In 2024, the Rishabh family consists of: - Rishabh (Father): 47 years - Sienna (Mother): 42 years - Calvin (Son): 22 years - Sameer (Daughter): 18 years Additional information: • Father is 4 times as old as daughter was 5 years ago • Mother was 25 years old when son was born • In 5 years, sum of all ages will be 149 Based on the relationships, what is Calvin's current age?
From given relationships, Calvin's age = 22

Question 10

Present ages of Harper, Vrijesh, Kabir are in ratio 2:3:4. Sum of ages is 54. Find Harper's age.
Let ages be 2x, 3x, 4x. Sum = 9x = 54, so x = 6. Harper = 2×6 = 12

Question 11

10 years ago, A was half as old as B. In 5 years, what will be the age difference between B and A?
10 years ago: A was 12, B was 14. Check: 12 = ½ × 14 ✓
Present ages: A = 22, B = 24
In 5 years: A = 27, B = 29
Age difference = |29 - 27| = 2
(Age difference stays constant over time = B - A = 2)

Question 12

A is 14. What is (A+7) and (2A-4)? What is the value of (A+7)?
A+7=21; 2A-4=24

Question 13

The sum of ages of all family members is 124 and their average age is 31. How many members are there in the family?
number = total / average = 124 / 31 = 4

Question 14

The average age of a group is 14. The sum of their ages is 84. How many people are there in the group?
Count = sum / average = 84 / 14 = 6

Question 15

The average age of a group is 27. The sum of their ages is 135. How many people are there in the group?
Count = sum / average = 135 / 27 = 5
