Meeta is 4 years older than Geeta and Seeta is 6 years younger than Meeta. If the average age of Geeta and Seeta is 24 years find the sum of the age of Seeta, Geeta and Meeta.

77 years

75 years

74 years

80 years

Explanation:

Age of Geeta = x year, Age of Meeta = x + 4,
Age of Seeta = x + 4 – 6 = x – 2
Average age of Geeta and Seeta = (x + x – 2)/ 2
24 × 2 = 2x – 2
48 + 2 = 2x
50 = 2x
x = 25 years
Age of Geeta = 25 years,
Age of Meeta = 29 years,
Age of Seeta = 23 years
Sum = 25 + 29 + 23 = 77 years
