Correct Answer: 3:1
Explanation:
Let the present age of P be 8x and Q be 5x After 4 years, P's age = 8x + 4 and Q's age = 5x + 4 8x+4/5x+4 = 4/3 24x+12 = 20x+16 => 4x = 4=> x = 1 Present age of P = 8 years Present age of Q = 5 years Required ratio = 15 : 5 = 3 : 1
Correct Answer: 30
Correct Answer: 35
Explanation:
Given S = 17 yrs
A = 16 yrs
B = 12 yrs
Average = 17 + 16 + 12/3 = 15 yrs
Given if Aslam added to them, their average increases by 5
=> Average of 4 members = 20
Let the age of Aslam be 'x'
Then,
17 + 16 + 12 + x /4 = 20
=> x = 80 - 45
=> x = 35.
Hence, the age of Aslam is 35 yrs.
