      Question

      A boy’s age is 130% of what it was 10 years ago, but

      65% of what it will be after 10 years. What is his present age?
      A 34 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 28 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 30 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present age of boy be ‘x’ years. 130% of age of boy 10 years before = 65% of age of boy after 10 years => (130/100) × (x - 10) = (65/100) × (x + 10) => 130(x - 10) = 65(x + 10) => 130x - 1300 = 65x + 650 => 65x = 1950 => x = 30 yrs
