  • Today is Ketan's birthday. One year from today he will be twice as old as he was 10 years ago. How old is Ketan today?


  • Options
  • A. 19 years
  • B. 20 years
  • C. 21 years
  • D. 22 years

  • Correct Answer
  • 21 years 

    Explanation

    Suppose the present age of Ketan is P years.
    According to question,
    present age of Ketan + 1 year = 2 ( present age of Ketan - 10 years )
    P + 1 = 2 (P ? 10)
    ? P + 1 = 2P ? 20
    ? 2P ? P = 20 + 1
    ? P = 21 years
    Therefore ,present age of Ketan is 21 years .
