From question, 4x + 6 = 26
? x = 5
&ther4; Pradeep's age = 3x = 15 years.
Correct Answer: 2 : 3
Explanation:
? 3x + 5x = 80
? x = 10
Ratio of their ages after 10 years = (3x + 10) : (5x + 10) = 40 : 60 = 2 : 3
Correct Answer: 7 years
Explanation:
Let the son's present age be x years
Then, (x + 4) + (4x + 4) = 43
? 5x = 35
? x = 7
Correct Answer: 11 : 4
Explanation:
Let father's age be 4T and son's age T years.
? 4T x T = 196
? T2 = 49
? T = 7
Father's age after 5 years = (4T + 5) = 33 years
Son's age after 5 years = (T + 5) = 12 years
? Ratio of their ages after 5 years = 33 : 12 = 11 : 4
Correct Answer: 84 km/h
Explanation:
Total speed of car, bus and train = 72 × 3 = 216 Km
Speed of car and train = ( 5 + 9 ) x 216 / ( 5 + 9 + 4 ) = 168 Km
Average = 168 / 2 = 84 Km
Correct Answer: 7 years
Explanation:

Let the age of A be (x - 3) years
? B's age = x years
? C's age = (x - 3) + 2 = x - 1
? B's age - C's age = x - (x - 1) = 1 year
? B is one year older then C.
Correct Answer: 8 years
