Question

Rajeev is twice as old as Sanjeev but twice as young as Ramesh. Bhagat is half the age of Sanjeev but twice the age of Neeraj. Which two persons form the pair of oldest and youngest?

• A. Sanjeev and Ramesh
• B. Ramesh and Bhagat
• C. Ramesh and Neeraj
• D. Cannot be determined
• E. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Ramesh and Neeraj

Suppose the age of Sanjeev = x years
Age of Rajeev = 2x years
Age of Ramesh = 4x years
Age of Bhagat $=\frac{x}{2}$ years
Age of Neeraj $=\frac{x}{4}$ years
Ramesh is the oldest and Neeraj is the youngest.
