Correct Answer: 27
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
Correct Answer: 50 years, 20 years

(2x + 2) + 2x + x = 27
5x = 25 => x = 5
Hence, B's age = 2x = 10 years.
