Question
Select the correct answerSunitha’s age is 16th of her father’s age. Her father’s age will be twice of Varun’s age after 10 years. If Varun’s eight birthday was celebrated two years ago, then what is Sunitha’s present age?
Solution
The problem can be solved in the following steps:
-
Varun's current age: Varun's eighth birthday was celebrated two years ago, so Varun is now 8 + 2 = 10 years old.
-
Father's current age: In 10 years, Varun will be 10 + 10 = 20 years old. According to the problem, this is half of Sunitha's father's age at that time. So, Sunitha's father is currently 20 * 2 - 10 = 30 years old.
-
Sunitha's current age: Sunitha’s age is 1/6th of her father’s age. So, Sunitha is 30 / 6 = 5 years old.
So, Sunitha's present age is 5 years.
