The age of Ram is double that of Shyam and half the of Sohan. Shyam is older than Mohan. Who is the oldest?

Mohan
Ram
Sohan
Shyam

Correct Answer: Sohan

Explanation:

Suppose the age of Shyam = P years
According to question ,
Age of Ram = 2 × age of Shyam = 2P years
Age of Sohan = 4 × age of Shyam = 4P years
∴ Shyam > Mohan
So, Sohan (4P) > Ram (2P) > Shyam (P) > Mohan
∴ Sohan is the oldest.
