    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let the age of Aman and Bhuvan be ‘a’ years and ‘b’ years respectively. According to question, 2(a – 6) = (b + 10) 2a – 12 = b + 10 2a – b = 22 -------- (1) And, (a + b) = 56 --------- (2) Solving (1) and (2), we get a = 26 and b = 30 So, the age of Chinu = 30 – 4 = 26 years
