A is two years older than B, who is twice as old as C. If the total of their ages is 32 , then what is the age of B ?

Correct option is B

Given:

A is two years older than B, who is twice as old as C. If the total of their ages is 32

Solution:

Let be the age of C is = $$x$$

then age of B is =$$2x$$ and age of A is = $$2x+2$$

According to question:

A+ B+C = 32

​$$x+2x+2x+2=32$$ 

$$5x+2=32$$

$$5x= 32-2=30$$

$$x= \frac{30}{5}=6$$

So the age of B is = $$2x= 2\times6=12$$ 

Thus the correct answer is (B)
