A person's present age is two-fifth of the age of his mother. After 8 years, he will be one-half of the age of his mother. How old is the mother at present

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

From 2nd we get, Present ages of Abhinav and his son is 11x and 6x,

From 1st we get, Abhinav's present age = 2 * Son's age

From 3rd we get, 5 years hence, Abhinav age / Son's age = 12 / 7

From clearly we can get Abhinav age from any of two equations.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

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

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Given that A+B = 12 + B + C
=> A – C = 12 + B – B = 12
=> C is younger than A by 12 years

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Clearly,
x+15 = 5(x-5)
<=> 4x = 40 => x = 10

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the son's present age be x years. Then, man's present age = (x + 24) years
=> (x + 24) + 2 = 2(x + 2)
=> x + 26 = 2x + 4
So, x = 22
