Sam and Mala have a conversation. ? Sam says I am certainly not over 40 ? Mala says I am 38 ..

Answer / prince

Sam is 41 and Mala is 38.

Let's invert the teaser and read it like this :

? Sam says I am certainly over 40

? Mala says I am not 38 and you are atmost 5 years
older
than me

? Now Sam says you are atmost 39

From first statement it is clear that Sam is over 40. Also,
from next 2 statements it is clear that Mala is less then
39. Hence the possibilities are :

Sam = 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, ......

Mala = 38,37, 36, 35, 34, 33, ......

It also says that the difference between their age is
maximum 5 years. Hence, there is only one possible pair i.e.
41 and 38, all other combination have differences more then
4.

Hence the answer - Sam is 41 and Mala is 38.
