Q:

The present ages of Pranay and Sai are in the ratio of 15 : 17 respectively. After 6 years, the respective ratio between the age of Pranay and Sai will be 9 : 10. What will be the age of Pranay after 6 years?

A) 42 B) 36
C) 30 D) 24

Let present age of Pranay = 15p

That of Sai = 17p

ATQ,

15p + 6/17p + 6 = 9/10

=> 150p + 60 = 153p + 54

=> p = 2

Therefore, Age of Pranay after 6 yrs = 15 x 2 + 6 = 36 years.
