2 pen + 2 pencil=$17.50
1 pen + 1 pencil=$8.75
pen->4u
pencil-> 1u
5u=$8.75
Dif of pen and pencil is 4u-1u=3u
Find the value of 3u

Pen is 4 x pencil. So 2 pens =8 pencils . So 2 pens and 2 pencils =10 pencils . Total $17.50/10. Gives pencil cost
$1.75. So pen is 4 x that. Gives $7.00. BUT the difference in price is less the $1.75.
So $ 5.25

Eh I can't see which is the shaded part. In general you have an equilateral triangle in the Center of 3 circles. This means each sector of the circle is 60 degrees. So each sector area is 60/360 or 1/6 of a circle

Thanks. Find the area of a circle and minus the area of the sector which is 1/6 of a circle.
Or find 5/6 of a circle.
Then because 3 shaded part so multiply by 3

For every 5m that Abdullah runs, he caught Thaman by 2m. Since they were 6m apart to begin with, Abdullah will need to run 5m * (6m/2m) = 15m to catch up with Thaman

1st thing in mind is that age difference doesn't change.
Hence, 4 - 1 = 3
Years grandfather older than Joyce
= 3 x 18 = 54
54 - 18 = 36
Ans: in 36 years time
P.S. I think this question is not very realistic since by the time Joyce's grandfather is twice her age, he's already 108 years old.
