    Chintu's age is 40% more than Amit's age. If Bishnu and Chintu's ages sum up to 106 years, what is Amit's current age?"
    A 25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 44 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 32 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let, the present ages of 'Amit' and 'Bishnu' be '20a' years and '25a' years, respectively. So, present age of 'Chintu' = 1.4 × 20a = '28a' years ATQ, 28a + 25a = 106 So, a = (106/53) = 2 So, the present age of 'Amit' = 20a = 20 × 2 = 40 years
