Question

Ed is 7 years older than Ted. Ed’s age is also times Ted’s age. How old are Ed and Ted?

A.
Ted is 15 years old, and Ed is 22 years old.
B.
Ted is 14 years old, and Ed is 21 years old.
C.
Ted is 13 years old, and Ed is 20 years old.
D.
Ted is 12 years old, and Ed is 19 years old.

Answer 1

The correct answer would be B. If you multiply 7 times 2 you get 14. Ted is still 7 years younger so there are no choices for 14 and 7 so that means go 7 years higher. In the end you end up with Ed being 21 and Ted being 14 with a 7 year gap between each other
