Question

If S is 6 years old and has 40 candies and R is not the youngest, find the difference between the number of candies with Q and P.___

Answer 1

From the given data in the question

S=40 $\Rightarrow$ T=20

$\Rightarrow R=\frac{2}{5}x|S-T|=8$

$P=\frac{1}{3}(Q+R)$

3P-Q=8

Q+P=T=20

Solving (1) $\&$ (2), we get P= 7 and Q=13. Q-P=6.
