Question

After 5 years, Rahul's age will be one-third of his father's present age. At present, if the ratio of his mother's age to his father's age is 7:9, and Rahul's present age is 10 years, then find his mother's present age.

A 28 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 35 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 42 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 49 years Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Rahul's age after 5 years = 10 + 5 = 15

This is one-third of his father's present age, so:

Father's present age = 15 × 3 = 45 years

Mother's present age = (7/9) × 45 = 35 years
