The total age of the people in Kaydence's family is 200. If Kaydence's father is 60 years old, Kaydence's mother 2 years younger than Kaydence's father, Kaydence's brother 1/2 the age of Kaydence's father, and Kaydence's sister 40 years old, how old is Kaydence? Let's be accurate as possible.

If Kaydence's father is 60 years old, her mother is 60 - 2 = 58 years old. The total age of the mother and father is 60 + 58 = 118 years. Kaydence's brother is half the father's age, which is 1 / 2 * 60 = 30 years. The total age of Kaydence's father, mother, and brother is 30 + 118 = 148 years. If you add Kaydence's sister's age to the total age of the father, mother, and brother, you get 148 + 40 = 188 years. If everyone's age in the family is 200, then Kaydence's age is 200 - 188 = 12 years old.
The answer: 12.
