Read Solution (Total 9)
-
- S=6V, V=S-20
S=6(S-20)
5S=120
S=24
ANS: (e) None of these - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(2)
- 24
answer none of these
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
- Let Present Age Of Vijay =x
Therefore Present Age Of Suraj = 6x
Also,Present Age of Suraj is y (from 2nd Condition)
Therefore Present Age of Vijay = y-20
6x=y
&
x=y-20
Solving for y comes 24 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(1)
- Present age of suraj=S=6V
Present age of vijay =V=(Present of suraj )-20
V= S - 20
V= 6V - 20
-5V = -20
V=4, S= 6V = 6*4=24, So ans is 24. option (e) - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- s=6x , x=s-20
s=6(s-20)
s=24
option(e) - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- none of these
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- Answer 24 years
(e) None of these - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let the present age of suraj be X
and that of vijay is Y then
X=6Y;.......(1)
Y=X-20;
therefore,
X=6(X-20)l
X=24
and e) none of this - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let the age of suraj=x,age of vijay=y;
x=6y; x-20=y;
6y-20=y;5y=20;y=4;x=24 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
