A is 3 years younger to B, C is two years older then A. Then B's relation to C is?

Two years older
One year younger
One year older
Two years younger

Correct Answer: One year older

Explanation:

Let the age of A be (x - 3) years
⇒ B's age = x years
⇒ C's age = (x - 3) + 2 = x - 1
∴ B's age - C's age = x - (x - 1) = 1 year
∴ B is one year older then C.
