    D 10 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the age of Meena at the time of her marriage be 4x. So, her present age = 5/4×4x = 5x According to question, => 4x = 5x – 6 => x = 6 Meena’s present age = 5x = 5×6 = 30 yrs Therefore, her son’s present age = (1/3)×30 = 10 years
