What is the age of Teja? A: Four years ago, Raju was as old as Teja is at present. B: Sitas present age is two times of Rajus present age. C: The average age of Teja and Sita is 19 years. Correct Answer All of three statements are necessary to give answer

From the given statements A, B & C

Let the present age of Teja = P

Raju present age = P + 4

Sita's present age = 2(P + 4)

Average of ages of Sita & Teja = 19

=> (2P + 8 + P)/2 = 19

= 3P + 8 = 38

=> P = 30/3 = 10

Hence, the present age of Teja = P = 10 yrs.

 

Therefore, by using all the three statements A, B & C we can find the age of Teja.
