Traditional Method Let the age of Teachers is T years and the three students is a years (Given age of all three student is same). According to question, (T + 3a)/4 = 20 or T + 3a = 80 ….(1) T – a = 20 ….(2) (assuming that teachers age will be greater than the students) By solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously we have a = 15 and T = 35. Option (c) is correct.
