Today is Vishal's birthday. One year from today he will be twice as old as he was 12 years ago. How old is Vishal today?

Correct Answer: 25 years

Explanation:

Suppose, the present age of Vishal be P years.
According to question,
present age of Vishal + 1 year = 2 ( present age of Vishal - 12 years )
P + 1 = 2(P – 12)
⇒ 2P – P = 25
∴ P = 25 years
Therefore , the present age of Vishal is 25 years .
