Correct Answer: 35
Explanation:
Let A's age 10 years ago = x years.
Then, B's age 10 years ago = 2x years.
(x + 10) / (2x+ l0) = 3/4
=> x = 5.
So, the total of their present ages =(x + 10 + 2x + 10)
= (3x + 20) = 35 years.

Correct Answer: 6:5
Explanation:
Let, Maala?s age = 4A and Kala?s age = 3A
Then 4A + 3A = 28
A = 4
Maala?s age = 16 years
and Kala?s age = 12 years
Proportion of their ages after 8 is = (16 + 8) : (12 + 8)
= 24 : 20
= 6 : 5
Correct Answer: 15
Explanation:
Krish?s age = 3A and Vaibhav?s age = 5A
(3A+9)/(5A+9) = 3/4
=> 4 (3A + 9) = 3 (5A + 9)
=> A = 3
Therefore, Vaibhav?s age = 15 years.
Correct Answer: 22
Explanation:
Let the son's present age be x years. Then, man's present age = (x + 24) years
=> (x + 24) + 2 = 2(x + 2)
=> x + 26 = 2x + 4
So, x = 22
Correct Answer: 10
Explanation:
Let Rajeev's present age be x years.
Rajeev's age after 15 years = (x + 15) years.
Rajeev's age 5 years back = (x - 5) years
Then ATQ,
x + 15 = 5 (x - 5)
x + 15 = 5x - 25
=> x = 10
Hence, Rajeev's present age = x = 10 years.
Correct Answer: 45 years
Explanation:
Let, Total of current ages of the 2 daughters is A years.
Then, father?s current age = 3A years.
(3A + 5) = 2 (A +10)
3A + 5 = 2A + 20
A = 15
Therefore, father?s current age = 45 years.
Correct Answer: 40/3 years
