B was born when A was 4 years 7 months old and C was born when B was 3 years 4 months old. When C was 5 years 2 months old, then their average age was: |
8 years 9 months 8 years 8 months 8 years 10 months 8 years 11 months |
8 years 11 months |
A − B = 4years 7months ... (i) By adding both the equations we get, A − C = 7years 11months Given : When, C = 5 years 2 months ∴ A = 13 years 1 month B = 8 years 6 months Average = \(\frac{A + b + c}{3}\) = \(\frac{26 \; years\; 9 \;months}{3}\) = 8 years 11 months |
