    Solution

    ATQ, Sum of the present ages of ‘Armaan’, ‘Biju’, ‘Chinky’ and ‘Danny’ = 31 × 4 = 124 years Sum of the ages of ‘Armaan’ and ‘Biju’, 2 years hence = 22 × 2 = 44 years Sum of the present ages of ‘Armaan’ and ‘Biju’ = 44 – 2 – 2 = 40 years Sum of the present age of ‘Chinky’ and ‘Danny’ = 124 – 40 = 84 years Present age of ‘Danny' = 84 × {3/(4 + 3)} = 36 years
