Answer:the ages of the youngest and the eldest is 4 years and 20 Years respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of the ages of three children is 2:5:1.

Total ratio =2+5+1=8

So that

the 1st Child's age =2/8 x 32=8  years

2nd  Child's age =5/8 x 32= 20 years

3rd Child's age =1/8 x 32= 4  years

Therefore the ages of the youngest and the eldest is 4 years and 20 Years respectively.​

b. The answer would be the remainder of the fraction ²/<span>₅</span>
