Correct Answer: 7 : 3
Explanation:
Let son's age 10 years ago be x years.
? father's age 10 years ago = 3x years
? 3x + 20 = 2(x + 20)
? x = 20
? Ratio of their present ages = (3x + 10) : (x + 10) = 70 : 30 = 7 : 3
Correct Answer: 1 : 3
Explanation:
Let the ages of Laxmi and her mother be 11x and 3x respectively.
From question, 11x - 3x = 24
? x = 3
? Ratio of their ages after 3 years = ( 3x + 3) : (11x + 3 )
= 12: 36 = 1 : 3
Correct Answer: 30 years
Explanation:
Let the respective ages of A, B and C, ten years ago be x, 2x and 3x years.
? (x + 10) + (2x + 10) + ( 3x + 10) = 90
? 6x = 60
? x = 10
? B's present age = 2x + 10 = 30 years
Correct Answer: 60 years
Explanation:
Let father's age be x years and the sum of ages of children be y years.
? x = 4 y ....(i)
Also (x + 6) = 2(y + 6 + 6 + 6) ....(ii) [6 is added thrice for three children ]
Solving (i) and (ii)
x = 60 years, and y = 15 years.
Correct Answer: x - 5
Explanation:
Let the Rahul's present age is 'A' years. Then Ritu's present age is (A + 8)
Now, according to the question,
(A + 8) - 3 = x
? A = (x - 5) years
Correct Answer: None of these
Explanation:
Let the present age of A and B be x and y years respectively
From 1st condition
(x - 1) / (y -1) = 3/4
? 4x - 4 = 3y - 3
? 4x - 3y = 1 ... (i)
From 2nd condition,
(x + 1) / (y + 1) = 5/6
? 6x + 6 = 5y + 5
? 6x - 5y = -1 ...(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 3 and equation (ii) by 2 and subtract
y = 5
? Present age of B = 5 years
Correct Answer: 83 years
Explanation:
Let the present age of father be x years, Then the present age of son = (x - 25) years .
According to to question,
x - 4 = 45
? x = 45 + 4
? x = 49
? Age of son = 49 - 25 = 24 years
? Age of son after five years = 24 + 5 = 29 years
? Age of father after five years = 49 + 5= 54 years
Total age of both = 29 + 54= 83 years
Correct Answer: 3 : 5
Explanation:
Let 10 yr ago, ages of Ram and Rahim were k yr and 3k yr, respectively.
Then, present age of Ram = (k + 10)
and present age of Rahim = (3k + 10)
According to the question, (k + 10 + 5) / (3k + 10 + 5) = 2/3
? 3k + 45 = 6k + 30
? 3k = 15
? k = 5
Hence, required ratio = (5 + 10) / (3 x 5 + 10)
= 15/25
= 3 : 5
Correct Answer: 40 yr
Explanation:
Let present age of Ravi be k.
Then, Present age of Ravi's father = 4k.
Now, 5 yr ago,
Ravi's father's age = 7 x Ravi's age
? 4k - 5 = 7(k - 5)
? 4k - 5 = 7k - 35
? 3k = 30
? k = 10
? Ravi's present age = k = 10 yr
? Ravi's father's present age = 4k
= 4 x 10 = 40 yr
Correct Answer: 8 years
Explanation:
Let the age of Mr Manoj be (10y + y) yrs.
? His wife's age = (10y + x ) years
Then, ((10x + y + 10y + x) / 11 = 10x + y -10y-x
? x + y = 9x - 9y
? 8x = 10y
? x/y = 5/4
? x = 5 and y =4 (because any other multiple of 5 will make x of two digits).
? Diff. = (10x + y) - (10y - x)
= 9x - 9y
= 9(x-y)
= 9(5-4)
= 9 yrs.
