Question Detail

Ratio between Rahul and Deepak is 4:3, After 6 Years Rahul age will be 26 years. What is Deepak present age.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Present age is 4x and 3x,
=> 4x + 6 = 26 => x = 5

So Deepak age is = 3(5) = 15

1. 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

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.

2. The ages of two persons differ by 20 years. If 5 years ago, the elder one be 5 times as old as the younger one, their present ages (in years) are respectively

20,20
20,10
25,15
30,10

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let their ages be x and (x + 20) years.
5 (x - 5) = (x + 20 - 5) or 4x = 40 or x = 10.
Their present ages are 30 years and 10 years

3. Ratio between Rahul and Deepak is 4:3, After 6 Years Rahul age will be 26 years. What is Deepak present age.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Present age is 4x and 3x,
=> 4x + 6 = 26 => x = 5

So Deepak age is = 3(5) = 15

4. 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 B

Explanation:

Let the mother's present age be x years.
Then, the person's present age = (2/5 x) years.

=> (2/5 x + 8/2) = 1 (x + 8)
=> 2(2x + 40) = 5(x + 8)
=> x = 40

5. The ratio between the present ages of P and Q is 6:7. If Q is 4 years old than P, what will be the ratio of the ages of P and Q after 4 years

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let P age and Q age is 6x years and 7x years.
Then 7x - 6x = 4 <=> x = 4

So required ratio will be (6x+4): (7x+4) => 28:32 => 7:8
