#14 - My Age Puzzle

My grandson is about as many days as my son is weeks, and my grandson is as many months as I am in years. My grandson, my son and I together are 140 years. Can you tell me my age in years?

The first equation (365g = 52s) can be approximated by
7g = s.

As before, the other two equations are
12g = m
g + s + m = 140.

The above system of 3 equations in 3 unknowns (g, s and m) can be simply solved as follows.
g + 7g + 12g = 140 or 20g = 140.
m = 12g = 12 × 140 / 20 = 84.

So, Grandpa is 84 years old.

#16 - Hard Puzzle Age

The average age of 10 members of a committee is the same as it was 4 years ago, because an old member has been replaced by a young member. Find how much younger is the new member ?

Let the sum of nine member (total) =x
and the age of old one=z
so its average 4 yrs before=(x+z)/10.
after 4 yrs let z be replaced by y.
so now avg=(x+4*10+y)/10

now (x+z)/10=(x+40+y)/10
so after solving it found
z=y+40.
so old person is 40yrs older than young one.
