  • Options
  • A. 27, 9, 21
  • B. 9, 21, 27
  • C. 21, 27, 9
  • D. 9, 27, 21

  • Correct Answer
  • 9, 27, 21 

    Explanation

    Let Anushka age = X
    Charu latha 12 yrs older than Anushka so Charu latha age = x+12
    Kajal is thrice as old as Anushka so Kajal age = 3x
    The ages of Anushka, Kajal and Charu latha together are 57 years
    i.e x + (x+12) + 3x = 57
    => 5x = 45
    :- x = 9
    Anushka age = 9
    Kajal age = 3x = 27
    Charu latha age = x+12 = 21
