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 .
