Prince hans has 12 older brothers. If hans oldest brother has an age that is 8 years more than twice his age and the sum of their ages is 62, how old is hans?

Hans is 18 years of age

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate Hans age, if the number of years with which the elder brother is older is given and the sum of their ages is given.

Firstly, we do not know Hans age. So what we do is to represent this age with a variable. Let’s say x here.

Secondly, we know from the question that the age of the elder brother is twice Hans’ age plus 8 years;

Mathematically the age of the elder brother would be 2x + 8

Thirdly, we understand that the sum of their ages is 62:

Mathematically:

x + 2x + 8 = 62

3x + 8 = 62

3x = 62 - 8

3x = 54

x = 54/3

x = 18

Hans’ age is 18 years
