Hi!
Many members here might be very busy and prefer to look for only useful information. Let us make some time for ourselves and help our brains to give out something rather than just taking in and storing it. Let us take some time to think out of the box and use our unused brains by thinking "out of the box".
If you think you are right, then please prove it with your calculations or formulas as evidence. Let us see how many busy people will get it right with their calculations and evidence.
I will give the correct answer very soon.

A = Peter
B = Paul
C = Pam
D = Pat
Statements:
A = B + 1
D = C + 1
A + B = C + D + 10
A + B + C + D = 60
To find:
A = ?
B = A - 1
D = C + 1
A + (A - 1) = C + (C + 1) + 10
2A - 1 = 2C + 11
2A = 2C + 12
A = C + 6
C = ?
A = C + 6
D = C + 1
B = C + D + 10 - A
B = C + C + 1 + 10 - (C + 6)
B = 2C + 11 - C - 6
B = C + 5
C = 60 - (C + 6) - (C + 5) - (C + 1)
C = 60 - 6 - C - C - 5 - C - 1
C = 48 - 3C
4C = 48
C = 12
A = 12 + 6 = 18
Peter = 18 picked
