  • Question
  • Radha get married 6 years ago. Today her age is 1 1/ 4 times her age at the time of marriage. Her son's age is 1/10 times her age. Her son's age is :


  • Options
  • A. 1 years
  • B. 2 years
  • C. 3 years
  • D. 4 years

  • Correct Answer
  • 3 years 

    Explanation

    Let us assume the present age of Radha be Y years; then
    Before 6 years Radha's age will be Y - 6 years.
    According to question,
    Today her age is 11/4 times her age at the time of marriage,
    5/4 ( Y - 6 ) = Y ( Since 11/4 = 5/4 )
    ? 5Y - 30 = 4Y
    ? Y = 30 years
    Hence, her son's age = 30 x 1/10 =3 years
