      The age of Arjun 4 years ago was 25% more than the present

      age of Rohan. 6 years hence, the ratio of their ages will be 15:11. Find the difference between their present ages.
      A 4 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 6 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 8 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 10 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 12 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present age of Rohan be β€˜x’ years
      Therefore, present age of Arjun = (1 + 0.25)x + 4 = 1.25x + 4

      According to the question,
      (1.25x + 4 + 6) / (x + 6) = 30/22

      Solving the equation, we get x = 16 years
      Then, Arjun's age = 24 years
      Required difference = 24 – 16 = 8 years
