here is the sol of ques 2...
 
let the sum of all the ages be S.
and individual ages be x1,x2,x3............x10
 
now,
 S -- x1 = 82
 S -- x2 = 83
      ''
      ''
      ''
 S -- x9 = 92
--------------------
adding,
9S -- ( S -- x10) =783
=> 8S + x10 = 783 ------------(1)
now we know S -- x10 = p(where p is one of the given sums)----------(2)
adding (1) n(2)
9S = 783 + p
=> S = 87 + p/9
hense p must be multiple of 9 and hence 90..
there fore S=97
hense find x1,x2...   by using privious equations.
plz plz rate me if u got the solutoin and if u liked the method...
 

Keep working....................Iam comming..

your's only,
Success!!
