Question

    The current age ratio of Aman to Bhanu is 4:1. In six

    years, Aman’s age will be three times Bhanu’s age at that time. What is Aman’s present age?
    A 25 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 32 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 48 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 55 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ;
    Let the present age of ‘Bhanu’ = ‘x’ years
    Present age of ‘Aman’ = ‘4x’ years
    ATQ;
    4x + 6 = 3 × (x + 6)
    Or, 4x + 6 = 3x + 18
    Or, x = 12
    So, present age of ‘Aman’ = 4 × x = 4 × 12 = 48 years
