Sagot :

Answer:

17

Explanation:

if ramin's house number = 3 yuza's

then choices are: n×3

1 , 3 | 2 , 6 | 3 , 9 | 4 , 12 | 5 , 13 | 6 , 18 | 7 , 21

since there are 13 house between yuza and ramin

thus it's 7 , 21 (because there's 13 numbers between 7 and 21)

yuza lives in house 7

ramin live in house 21

and since houses between yuza and glonti = 3 times houses between glonti and ramin, with a ratio of 3:1

13 - 1 = 12 (we subtracted 1 for glonti's house)

3:1 , 3+1=4

12/4=3

3×3=9

hence

9 and 3 are the numbers of houses in each side with glonti in the middle

9 houses - glonti's house - 3 houses

7 + 9 = 16 (yuza's house number 7 plus 9 houses ahead)

glonti lives in the house: 16 + 1 = 17
