  1. Five years ago, the average age of P and Q was 25. The average age of P, Q and R today is 25. Age of R after 5 years will be
    1. 15 years
    2. 20 years
    3. 40 years
    4. 35 years
Correct Option: B

Here , Five years ago, the average age of P and Q = 25.
Sum of the present age of P and Q = 2 × 25 + 10 = 60 years
The average age of P, Q and R today= 25 years
Sum of the present age of P, Q and R = 25 × 3 = 75 years
∴ R’s present age = 75 – 60 = 15 years
∴ R’s age after 5 years = 15 + 5 = 20 years
