Problem (Algebra):
Charlie was born in the twentieth century. On his birthday in the present year (2014), he notices that his current age is twice the number formed by the rightmost two digits of the year in which he was born. Compute the four-digit year in which Charlie was born.

Solution:
Let $N$ be the number formed by the rightmost two digits of the year in which Charlie was born. Then his current age is $100-N+14=114-N$. Setting this equal to $2 N$ and solving yields $N=38$, hence the answer is 1938 .

Let $N$ be the number formed by the rightmost two digits of the year in which Charlie was born. The number of years from 1900 to 2014 can be thought of as the number of years before Charlie was born plus the number of years since he was born, or $N$ plus Charlie's age. Thus $N+2 N=114$, which leads to $N=38$, so the answer is 1938 .

Final answer: 1938
