      than B. The ratio of age of A, 5 years hence and age of B, 3 years ago is 3:2. What was age of C, 6 years ago?
      A 16 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 15 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present age of B be x years. A’s present age = (x + 4) years C’s present age = (x - 6) years According to question, => [(x + 4) + 5]/(x - 3) = 3/2 => x = 27 C’s age, 6 years ago = (27 - 6) – 6 = 15 years
