SRITAMA CHOWDHURY   8 years AGO

Say,Mahesh's age is a years,and the age gap of Mahesh and Bhuwan as well as Mahesh and Chandan is d years.

So,
a-d+a+d=48
and, 2a=48
and a=24.

Mahesh's age is 24 years.

Let b be bhuvan's age, m be mahesh's age and c be chandan's. Given b+c=48 and also relation b-m=m-c , hence 2m=b+c=48. Therefore m=24

dev   8 years AGO

Let Mahesh's age = m
Bhuwan's age = b and chandan's age = c

given mahesh is as much younger to bhuwan as he is older than chandan ....

i.e. b - m = m - c
=> b + c = 2 *m

and given sum od ages of Bhuwan and Chandan = 48
so b + c = 48 yrs
=> 2 *m = 48 yrs
=> m = 48/ 2 = 24 yrs

so option (3) is right.....

Mahesh and Chandan are of same age. So each of them will be 24 years old and that's why the sum of their ages is 48.

Shashank Joshi   8 years AGO

The age of Mahesh lies exactly between that of Bhuwan and Chandan , i.e it can be seen as AM of ages of Bhuwan and Chandan , ie (48/2) = 24.


Verification:
This can be verified by taking sample ages for Chandan and Bhuwan as (0,48),(1,47),(2,46),(3,45),(4,44),(5,43),(6,42),(7,41),(8,40),(9,39),(10,38),(11,37),(12,36),(13,35),(14,34),(15,33),(16,32),(17,31),(18,30),(19,29),(20,28),(21,27),(22,26),(23,25)

lets assume that

age difference is x year

so bhuwan age is (age of mahesh +x)
and nad chandan age is (age of mahesh -x)

as given age of bhuwan + age of chandan =48

( m+x )+(m-x)=48

bhuwan= 36
and chandan = 12

if x is the no of years that Mahesh(M) younger and older than Bhuwan(B) and Chandan(C) respectively
given : B+C=48
=> B-x=M-------(1)
=> C+x=M
from above equations
=> 2x=B-C
=> x=B-24. (since B+C=48)
substitute above eqn in eqn (1)
=> Mahesh present age(M) = 24 years.

if mahesh age is assumed to be x and age difference is assumed to be y then according to question chandan age becomes x-y and bhuwan age is x+y so accordind to question

As the age of mahesh is between bhuwan and Chandan , and the sum of bhuwan and Chandan age is 48 , so the age of mahesh will in the one of the factors of 48 , and less than bhuwan's and greater than Chandan.
diff between bhuwan's age and Chandan age to the mahesh present age is equal.
