Options- A. 40 years
- B. 50 years
- C. 45 years
- D. 35 years
- Correct Answer
- 40 years
ExplanationThe average age of husband, wife and their child 3 years ago = 27 years
Total age of husband, wife and their child 3 years ago = 27 × 3 = 81 years
The average age of wife and the child 5 years ago = 20 years
Total age of wife and child five years ago was 20× 2 = 40 years
? Total age of wife and child 3 years ago
= 40 + (2 × 2)
= 40 + 4 = 44 years
? Age of husband three years ago = Total age of husband, wife and their child 3 years ago - Total age of wife and child 3 years ago
Age of husband three years ago = 81 ? 44 = 37 years
Therefore, the present age of husband = 37 + 3 = 40 years - 1. NA
