Question

    Six years from now, the ratio of

    Krishna's age to his age two years ago is 3:2. Currently, Gaurav is 14 years older than Krishna. If Juju's current age is equal to the average of Gaurav's and Krishna's current ages, what is Juju's present age?
    A 20 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 18 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 12 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let the present age of ‘Krishna’ = ‘y’ years According to the question, {(y + 6)/(y – 2)} = (3/2) Or, 2y + 12 = 3y – 6 So, y = 18 Present age of ‘Gaurav’ = 18 + 14 = 32 years So, present age of ‘Juju’ = (18 + 32)/2 = 25 years
