Question
Currently, the average age of individuals 'A' and 'B' is
17 years, with 'A' being 2 years older than 'B'. The age of 'C' is 50% greater than that of 'A', and 'D' is 25% younger than 'B'. Calculate the ratio of the present ages of 'C' to 'D'.Solution
Let the present age of βBβ and βAβ respectively be βyβ years and (y + 2) years Sum of present ages of βAβ and βBβ = 17 Γ 2 = 34 years So, y + y + 2 = 34 Or, 2y + 2 = 34 So, y = (34 β 2) Γ· 2 = 16 So, present age of βAβ and βBβ is 18 years and 16 years, respectively Present age of βCβ = 18 Γ 1.50 = 27 years Present age of βDβ = 16 Γ 0.75 = 12 years So, required ratio = 27:12 = 9:4 Hence, option c.
