      Question

      At present, the total age of Sohan and Rohan is 60 years.

      Five years back, the ratio of their ages was 2:3. What is Rohanโ€™s current age?
      A 45 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 35 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 65 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 55 yrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the present age of Sohan = y years

      Then, present age of Rohan = (60 - y) years

      According to the question,

      (y - 5):(60 - y - 5) = 2:3

      โ‡’ 3(y - 5) = 2(55 - y)

      โ‡’ 3y - 15 = 110 - 2y

      โ‡’ 5y = 125

      โ‡’ y = 125 รท 5 = 25

      So, present age of Rohan = 60 - 25 = 35 years
