Explanation:
From the given data,
Manogna?s age be 0 when she was born.
Her father?s age = 38 years
Her mother?s age when Manogna?s brother who is 4 years younger to her was born = 36 years
=> Manogna?s mother age when Manogna was born = 36 - 4 = 32 years
Hence, the difference between the ages of Manogna?s parents = 38 - 32 = 6 years.
Correct Answer: 15
Explanation:
Let the present ages of Kapil and Avanthi be K & A
Given difference in their ages = K - A = 9 years ...........(1)
After 7 years, K + 7 = 2(A + 7) ......(2)
K + 7 = 2A + 14
K - 2A = 7 ............(3)
K - A = 9 ....(1)
From (1) & (3),
-A = -2
=> A = 2 years
=> K = 9 + 2 = 11 years
Required, age of Kapil after 4 years = 11 + 4 = 15 years.
Correct Answer: 50
Correct Answer: 50 years, 20 years
Correct Answer: 4 years
Explanation:
suppose the ages of Sunil and Anil are 8x yr and 7x yr, respectively.
After 6 yr, = 136x + 102 = 133x + 114
136x ? 133x = 114 ? 102
3x = 12 X = 12/3 = 4
Age of Sunil = 8x = 8 × 4 = 32 yr
Present age Anil = 7x = 7 × 4 = 28 yr
Required difference = (32 ? 28) = 4 yr
