      Question

      A is 6 years older than B who is four times as old as C.

      The total sum of the ages of A, B and C is 60. How old is B?
      A 16 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 24 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 12 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present age of C be x years. Now, B’s age will be = 4x And A’s age will be = (6+ 4x) According to the question, => A + B + C = 60 => (6 + 4x) + 4x + x = 60 => 9x = 54 => x = 6 Therefore the age of B = 4Β Γ—Β 6 = 24 years
