The ratio between present age of Kunal and Ganesh is 3 : 5. If 4 years later Kunal will be younger then Ganesh by 12 years. What is the present age of Kunal?

17 years
19 years
22 years
None of these

Correct Answer: None of these

Explanation:

Let the present age of Kunal be 3x year and the
present age of Ganesh = 5x years.
According to question ,
(5x + 4 ) - (3x + 4 ) = 12
⇒ 2x = 12
∴ x = 6
∴ Present age of Kunal = 3x = 3 x 6 = 18 year
