Correct Answer: Q
Solution : Given: P = Q + 4; Q = R – 7; R = S + 5; S = T – 8
Let the age of T be a. Age of S = T – 8 = a – 8 Age of R = S + 5 = a – 8 + 5 = a – 3 Age of Q = R – 7 = a – 3 – 7 = a – 10 Age of P = Q + 4 = a – 10 + 4 = a – 6 Thus, the arrangement is as follows – T > R > P > S > Q
So, Q is the youngest. Hence, the second option is correct.
