      Question

      Present age of 'P' is two times more than the age of

      his daughter. If five years ago, their ages were in ratio 5:1, respectively, then find the present age of 'P'.
      A 30 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 45 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 40 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the present age of P's daughter be 'x' years. So, present age of 'P' = x * 3 = '3x' years ATQ; {(3x - 5)/(x - 5)} = (5/1) Or, 3x - 5 = 5 * (x - 5) Or, 3x - 5 = 5x - 25 Or, 20 = 2x So, x = 10 So, present age of 'P' = 3 * 10 = 30 years
