A is 2 years older than B, B is twice as old as C, if total ages of A, B and C is 27 then how old is B?

A is 2 years older than B, B is twice as old as C, if total ages of A, B and C is 27 then how old is B?

  • (A) 7
  • (B) 8
  • (C) 9
  • (D) 10
  • Solution: Let's say C equals x.
  • This makes B equal to 2x, and A becomes 2x + 2.
  • If we add them all up, it looks like this: x + 2x + (2x + 2) = 27.
  • Simplifying gives us 5x + 2 = 27, then subtracting 2 results in 5x = 25.
  • So, x turns out to be 5.
  • Consequently, B is calculated as double of x, which equals 10.
  • The correct choice is (D) 10.
