Directions (6-10) :

Seven persons are born in different years such as 1987, 1990, 1993, 1995, 1998, 2000, and 2003. All the persons’ ages are calculated through till 2019.

I was born in an even-numbered year but younger than J who is older than L. Difference between the ages of I and J was the same as between M and N. Both I and N are younger than M and J.
I is not the youngest one who neither born in 2003 so the option is I was born in 2000 and N was born in 2003.
The difference between the ages of I and J is 10 years.

Difference between the ages of I and J is double the difference between the ages of N and K. So the ages of I is 19 and J was 29 difference between the two of them is 10. Possible is J and K difference is 5. So K was born in 1998. I was born in an even-numbered year but younger than J who is older than L.
