      Question

      Asim is four years older than his brother Basu who is

      thrice as old as Chetan. If Asim is four times as old as Chetan, then how old (in years) is Basu?
      A 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let Chetan's age be c years. Then, Basu's age = 3c years. Asim's age = 3c + 4 years (4 years older than Basu). Also, Asim's age = 4c years (4 times Chetan). Therefore, 4c = 3c + 4 => c = 4. So, Basu's age = 3c = 3*4 = 12 years.
