Correct Answer: Sohan
Explanation:
Let the age of Shyam = x year
Then, age of Ram = 2x year
and age of Sohan = 4x year
? 4x > 2x > x
On arranging the above data, we get
? Sohan > Ram > Shyam > Mohan
So, Sohan is the eldest.
Correct Answer: Jyotsana
Explanation:
The age of Amit is same as Sumit
Amit = Sumit,
Richa is younger than Sumit
Sumit > Richa
Richa is younger than Jyotsana
Jyotsana > Richa
Sumit is younger than Jyotsana
Jyotsana > Sumit
Finally
Amit = Sumit, Sumit > Richa
Jyotsana > Richa > Saurabh
Jyotsana > Sumit
On arranging the above data, we get
? Jyotsana > Sumit= Amit > Richa > Saurabh
So, Jyotsana is eldest among them.
Correct Answer: 4 yr
Explanation:
Let Age of Mahima = x.
Age of Anita = 2x.
Age of Rajan = x/2.
Age of Deepti = 4x.
Age of Lata = x/4.
Mahima's age = 16 yr
? Lata's age = 16/4 = 4 yr

Explanation:
Let Age of Mahima = x.
Age of Anita = 2x.
Age of Rajan = x/2.
