Answer to Q90

Sally is 54 years old and her mother is 80, how many years ago was Sally's mother three times her age?

Let Sally's age be x
Let her mother's age be y

Now, x = 54 and y = 80
So, y - x = 26 (the mother will always be 26 years older than Sally at all time)

But there was a time when the mother's age was three times Sally's age.
So at that time: y = 3x - - eq i
But remember: y - x = 26 - - eq ii

From eq ii
y = 26 + x - - eq iii

Putting eq iii into eq i
26 + x = 3x
26 = 3x - x
26 = 2x
x = 26 ÷ 2
x = 13

So, when Sally was 13 her mother was 3 x 13 = 39. And to check, is 39 - 13, 26? Yes, so we are good.

But here is the tricky part, the question asked for how many years ago that scenario was not Sally's age at that time.

Sally is now 54 and the scenario was when she was 13, so that was 54 - 13 years ago

Answer: 41

Telegram Auto-Delete Messages in Any Chat

Some messages aren’t supposed to last forever. There are some Telegram groups and conversations where it’s best if messages are automatically deleted in a day or a week. Here’s how to auto-delete messages in any Telegram chat. You can enable the auto-delete feature on a per-chat basis. It works for both one-on-one conversations and group chats. Previously, you needed to use the Secret Chat feature to automatically delete messages after a set time. At the time of writing, you can choose to automatically delete messages after a day or a week. Telegram starts the timer once they are sent, not after they are read. This won’t affect the messages that were sent before enabling the feature.

The messaging service and social-media platform owes creditors roughly $700 million by the end of April, according to people briefed on the company’s plans and loan documents viewed by The Wall Street Journal. At the same time, Telegram Group Inc. must cover rising equipment and bandwidth expenses because of its rapid growth, despite going years without attempting to generate revenue.
