Q:

A man is 24 years older than his son. In two years, his age will be twice the age of his son. The present age of his son is

A) 20	B) 21

Q:

Ten years ago A was half of B in age. If the ratio of their present ages is 3 : 4, what will be the total of their present ages

A) 15	B) 25
C) 35	D) 45

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 35

Explanation:

Let A's age 10 years ago = x years.
Then, B's age 10 years ago = 2x years.
(x + 10) / (2x+ l0) = 3/4
=> x = 5.
So, the total of their present ages =(x + 10 + 2x + 10)
= (3x + 20) = 35 years.

Q:

Sachin is younger than Rahul by 7 years. If the ratio of their ages is 7:9, find the age of Sachin

A) 24.5	B) 25.5
C) 26.5	D) 27.5

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 24.5

Explanation:

If Rahul age is x, then Sachin age is x - 7,

so, (x-7)/x =7/9

$\Rightarrow$ 9x - 63 = 7x
$\Rightarrow$ 2x = 63
$\Rightarrow$ x = 31.5

So Sachin age is 31.5 - 7 = 24.5
