At present, the ratio between the ages of Arun and Deepak is 4 : 3. After 6 years, Arun’s age will be 26 years. What is the age of Deepak at present?
-
- 12 years
- 15
- 19 years
- 25 years
Correct Option: B
Given :- At present, the ratio between the ages of Arun and Deepak is 4 : 3.
Suppose the present age of Arun = 4P years
Present age of Deepak = 3P years
After 6 years Arun’s age = 4P + 6 = 26 = 4P = 26 – 6
| ∴ P = | = 5 | 4 |
Therefore, the present age of Deepak = 3P years = 3 × 5 = 15 years
