      C Both II and III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Both I and II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Only I Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Statement I:
      Present age of 'A' = 19 + 2 = 21 years
      Present age of 'B' = (4/3) Γ— 21 = 28 years
      Required sum = 21 + 4 + 28 + 4 = 57 years
      So, statement I is not true. Statement II:
      Present age of 'A' = 16 + 2 = 18 years
      Present age of 'B' = (3/2) Γ— 18 = 27 years
      Required sum = 18 + 4 + 27 + 4 = 53 years
      So, statement II is true. Statement III:
      Present age of 'A' = 23 + 2 = 25 years
      Present age of 'B' = (7/5) Γ— 25 = 35 years
      Required sum = 25 + 4 + 35 + 4 = 68 years
      So, statement III is true. Therefore, both statements II and III are true. Hence, option C .
