Question

Among seven people F, G, H, K, L, M and N, each has a different age. Only two people are older than M. Only two people are younger than K. The age of K is a multiple of 10. The youngest is 12 years old. F is the eldest. N is older than L, but younger than H. L is not the youngest. The sum of the ages of the youngest and second oldest person is 42 years. What can be the possible age of L?

A.

21 years

B.

10 years

C.

15 years

D.

12 years

Correct option is C

Youngest = 12
2nd oldest = 30 (since 12 + 30 = 42)
F is oldest → F = 1st
M is 3rd oldest → Rank 3
K is 3rd youngest → Rank 5, age = 20 (multiple of 10)
H > N > L
L is not youngest → L ≠ 12
This order:
F, H(30), M, N, K(20), L(?), G(12)
L is 2nd youngest, so age is between 12 and 20 → 15 

Thus, correct option is (c).
