    Explanation

    Given that: 1. The difference of age b/w R and Q = The difference of age b/w Q and T. 2. Sum of age of R and T is 50 i.e. (R + T) = 50. Question: R - Q = ?. Explanation: R - Q = Q - T (R + T) = 2Q Now given that, (R + T) = 50 So, 50 = 2Q and therefore Q = 25. Question is (R - Q) = ? Here we know the value(age) of Q (25), but we don't know the age of R. Therefore, (R-Q) cannot be determined.
