Q:

Rajeev's age after 15 years will be 5 times his age 5 years back. What is the present age of rajeev?

 A) 12 B) 14 C) 22 D) 10

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10

Explanation:

Let Rajeev's present age be  x years.

Rajeev's age after 15 years = (x + 15) years.

Rajeev's age 5 years back = (x - 5) years

Then ATQ,

x + 15 = 5 (x - 5)

x + 15 = 5x - 25

=> x = 10

Hence, Rajeev's present age = x = 10 years.

Q:

Sum of present ages of P and Q is 41. Age of P 2 year hence is equal to age of R, 1 year ago. Age of P, 4 year hence is equal to age of Q 1 year ago and ratio of present age of P and S is 3 : 4. Find the difference of age of R and S.

 A) 2 B) 3 C) 4 D) 5

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3

Explanation:

According to the given data,

P + Q = 41 ......(1)

R - 1 = P + 2

R = P + 3

and

P + 4 = Q - 1

=> Q = P + 5 ....(2)

From (1)&(2)

P = 18

Q = 18 + 5 = 23

R = 18 + 3 = 21

=> P/S = 3/4

=> S = 4/3 x 18 = 24

Required Difference = S - R = 24 - 21 = 3.

Q:

Sweety is 54 years old and her mother is 80. How many years ago was Sweety's mother three times her age?

 A) 20 B) 41 C) 26 D) 33

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 41

Explanation:

Given P = 54 and M = 80

According to the question,

Let ‘A’ years ago, M = 3P

=> M - A/P - A = 3

=> 80 - A = 3(54 - A)

=> 80 - A = 162 - 3A

=> 2A = 82

=> A = 41

Therefore, A = 41 years ago Sweety’s mother was 3 times of Sweety’s age.

Hence, at the age S = 13 and M = 39.

Q:

7 years ago, the ratio of the ages of Anirudh to that of Bhavana, was 7:9. Chandhu is 12 years older than Anirudh and 12 years younger than Bhavana. What is Chandhu's present age?

 A) 91 years B) 115 years C) 103 years D) Can't be determined

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 103 years

Explanation:

Let present Anirudh's age be 'A' and Bhavana's age be 'B'

Given seven years, their ratio is 7:9

=> A-7 : B-7 = 7 : 9

=> 9A - 7B = 14 .......(1)

And given,

Chandhu is 12 years older than A nad 12 years younger than B

=> C = A + 12....(2)

=> B = C + 12

=> B = A + 12 + 12 .....(From (2))

=> B = A + 24 ....(3)

Put (3) in (1)

9A - 7(A+24) = 14

9A - 7A - 168 = 14

2A = 182

=> A = 91 years

=> C = A + 12 = 91 +12 = 103 years.
