      Question

      The ages of A, B and C together are 62 years. B is twice

      as old as A and C is 6 years older than A. What is the difference between ages of B and C?
      A 8 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 5 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 9 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let A’s age be x years. B’s age = 2x and C’s age = (6 + x) According to question, => x + 2x + (6 + x) = 62 => 4x = 56 => x = 14 B’s age = 2x = 28 years C’s age = 6 + x = 20 years Difference between the ages of B and C = 28 – 20 = 8 years
