1947 is not in the initial list of years given in question

Question:

DIRECTIONS: Study the information and answer the given questions:

There are seven people TripleH, Bigshow, Stonecold, Undertaker, Kane, Cena, and Rikishi . They all were born on different year’s viz. 1949, 1962, 1974, 1989, 1995, 2000 and 2004 but not necessarily in same order. But the date and month of birth of all these persons are same. Calculation is done with respect to the present year 2019 and assuming months and date to be same.

The age of Rikishi is in multiple of (five). Rikishi is neither the oldest nor the youngest. The difference between the age of Rikishi and Stonecold is perfect cube. Stonecold was not born in 1947. The difference between the age of Stonecold and Undertaker is half the age of Bigshow. Kane was born in odd number of year. Cena is not youngest. 

Who among following is oldest?

Options:
A)

Cena

B)

Stone cold

C)

Undertaker

D)

Kane

E)

None of these

Solution:

 

Ans: (d)

The statement about rikishi’s age being the multiple of 5, will give us two instances where its age can be either 30 or 45, as 15 will get cancelled after the second statement. Now to confirm the age of rikishi we will have to se the number which is a perfect cube as well as showcases the difference of age between stonecold and rikishi. 30yrs will be the age of rikishi, now the fight is to find the age of bigshow, as the statement says  The difference between the age of Stonecold and Undertaker is half the age of Bigshow and the age of stonecold which we have taken out will help us take out the age of bigshow  i.e 24yrs.
