My sister was half my age when I was 12, when I was 30 she got married and had her daughter a year later. I am now 70, how old is my niece?
My sister was half my age when I was 12: That means my sister is 6 years younger than me.
when I was 30 she got married: If she is 6 years younger than me, that means she got married at 24
and had her daughter a year later: She had her daughter at 25
I am now 70, how old is my niece? If I am 70 now, that means my sister is now 64. She gave birth at 25. Her daughter, my niece will now be 64 - 25 = 39

“To the extent it is used I fear it’s often for illicit finance. It’s an extremely inefficient way of conducting transactions, and the amount of energy that’s consumed in processing those transactions is staggering,” the former Fed chairwoman said. Yellen’s comments have been cited as a reason for bitcoin’s recent losses. However, Yellen’s assessment of bitcoin as a inefficient medium of exchange is an important point and one that has already been raised in the past by bitcoin bulls. Using a volatile asset in exchange for goods and services makes little sense if the asset can tumble 10% in a day, or surge 80% over the course of a two months as bitcoin has done in 2021, critics argue. To put a finer point on it, over the past 12 months bitcoin has registered 8 corrections, defined as a decline from a recent peak of at least 10% but not more than 20%, and two bear markets, which are defined as falls of 20% or more, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
