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:

If Rahul age is x, then Sachin age is x-7,
so (x-7)/x = 7/9
=> 9x-63 = 7x
=> 2x = 63
=> x = 31.5

So Sachin age is 31.5 - 7 = 24.5

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the present ages are 4x, 7x, 9x.
=> (4x-8) + (7x-8) + (9x-8) = 56
=> 20x = 80
=> x = 4

So their present ages are: 16,28,36

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let B's age = x years.
Then, As age = (x+ 9) years.
(x+9+10)=2(x—10)
hence x=39.
Present age of B = 39 years

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

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
