roy=iris+2....(2)
In 2yrs,
roy+2=2(erik+2)
(erik+4)+2=2(erik+2)....from(1)

given that now roy is 4 years older that eric so
roy=4+eric -->1
and half of that older than iris
roy=2+iris -->2
in 2years roy is twice as old as erick
roy+2=2(eric+2)
roy=2eric+2

Roy is now 4 years older than Erik --> R=E+4
Roy is now ... half of that amount older than Iris --> R=I+frac{4}{2}=I+2 (half of the amount of 4)
In 2 years, Roy will be twice as old as Erik --> R+2=2(E+2) (in 2 years for both Roy and Eric)

Then in 2 years what would be Roy’s age multiplied by Iris’s age --> (R+2)(I+2)=?

Solving: R=6 and I=4 --> (R+2)(I+2)=48

Answer: C.

Let present age of Roy be x.
Eric is 4 yrs younger than Roy->x-4
Iris is 2 yrs younger than Roy->x-2
In 2 yrs( According to the problem)
x=2(x-4) ->x=8(Roy's age)
Iris age=6,Eric's age=4
Hence Iris age*Roy's age=6*8=48
