Question
Currently, Mandeep is 25% older than Sandeep. Four years
from now, the combined ages of Mandeep and Sandeep will total 53 years. Given that Ramandeep's age is 32% greater than Mandeep's current age, determine how old Ramandeep is today.Solution
Let the present age of Sandeep be 'm' years. Present age of Mandeep = 1.25 X m = 1.25m years So, m + 4 + 1.25m + 4 = 53 Or, 2.25m + 8 = 53 Or, 2.25m = 45 Or, 'm' = (45/2.25) = 20 Present age of Ramandeep = 1.32 X 1.25m = 1.32 X 1.25 X 20 = 33 years
