      Question

      Present ages of P and Q are in the ratio 2:3

      respectively. If Qโ€™s age, 8 years hence from now will be 2 times of Pโ€™s age, 6 years ago from now, then find the present age of Q.
      A 40 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 52 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 60 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 65 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present ages of P and Q be 2x and 3x years respectively. According to the question, => (3x + 8) = 2ย ร— (2x โ€“ 6) => 3x + 8 = 4x โ€“ 12 => x = 20 Therefore, the present age of Q = 3x = 60 years
