Question
Select the correct answerAnil is as much younger to Vivek as he is older to Tarun. If the total of the ages of Vivek and Tarun is 48 years, how old is Anil?Options24263318
Solution
Let's solve this step by step:
-
According to the problem, Anil is as much younger to Vivek as he is older to Tarun. This means the age difference between Anil and Vivek is the same as the age difference between Anil and Tarun. So, we can say that Anil is in the middle of Vivek and Tarun in terms of age.
-
The total age of Vivek and Tarun is given as 48 years. Since Anil is in the middle, we can divide this total by 2 to find Anil's age.
-
So, Anil's age is 48 / 2 = 24 years.
Therefore, the correct answer is 24.
