Aman during his life had three wives.

his first wife passed when he had been
then married half his life.

six years later he married again.
this marriage only lasted a third the
length of his first.

he remarried within weeks and lived
with her the remainder of his life.
his last marriage lasted 3 years more
than his other marriages combined.

he died at age 86.

how long was his third marriage ?

The third marriage lasted 31 years.

If we write the length of the first marriage as a, we can write the whole thing as an equation.

His life pre-marriage is also a, because when his first marriage ended, he'd been married for half of his life. So at the moment we have 2a.

He went 6 years before remarrying, and then it lasted a third of the first one. We can express this as a/3. We now have 2a+a/3+6.

Then, his third marriage was 3 years longer than both of his previous marriages. We can write this as a+a/3+3, so we now have 3a+2a/3+9.

He died at 86, so the equation is
3a+2a/3+9=86
-9
3a+2a/3=77

Rearrange it. Each singular a is 3 full parts, therefore we can write it as 9a/3.

Now we have 11a/3=77.

Divide by 11.

a/3=7

Multiply by 3.

a=21.

The first marriage lasted 21 years. The second lasted 1/3 of that, which is 7. Together, these add up to 28. If you add 3, you are left with 31, meaning the marriage lasted for 31 years.

Hope this helps :)

It is 2 out of 8 she will pick green and 3 out of 7 she will pick green but red and green would be 5 out of 5 so 50% chance
