Solution

To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:

  1. We know that Denis is 5 years old.
  2. Since Rahul is 2 years younger than Denis, Rahul is 5 - 2 = 3 years old.
  3. According to the problem, if 6 years are subtracted from Ajay's age and the result is divided by 18, we get Rahul's age. So, we can set up the equation (Ajay's age - 6) / 18 = 3.
  4. Solving this equation for Ajay's age, we get Ajay's age = (3 * 18) + 6 = 54 + 6 = 60 years.

So, Ajay is 60 years old. The correct option is 60 years.
