      Question

      Present age of ‘M’ is 25% more than that of ‘N’.

      4 years ago, ‘M’ was 1.5 times as old as ‘N’. What is the present age of ‘N’?
      A 8 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 12 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 14 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present age of ‘N’ be ‘x’ years
      Therefore, present age of ‘M’ = 1.25x years
      ATQ;
      (1.25x – 4) = 1.5 × (x – 4)
      Or, 1.25x – 4 = 1.5x – 6
      Or, 2 = 0.25x
      Or, x = 8
      Therefore, present age of ‘N’ = 8 years
