Question

    In the question, two quantities I and II are given. You have to solve both the quantities to establish the correct relation between Quantity-I and Quantity-II and choose the correct option.

    What will be the age of A after 4 years? Quantity

    I: The ratio between the present ages of A and B is 5:8 respectively and B is 9 years elder than A. Quantity II: 15 years
    A Quantity I ≥ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Quantity I ≤ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Quantity I > Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Quantity I < Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Quantity I = Quantity II or relation is not established Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Quantity I: Let the present age of A and B be 5x and 8x respectively. According to question, => 8x – 5x = 9 => x = 3 A’s age after 4 years = (5 x 3) + 4 = 19 years Quantity II: 15 years Therefore, Quantity I > Quantity II
