achilles son of nymph ,thetis, and peleus, the king of myrmidons.Zeus and Poseidon had been rivals for the hand of thetis until Prometheus, the fire bringer, warned zeus of a profeicy that thetis would bear a son greater than his father for this reason the two gods withdrew thier persuit and had her wed peleus. the fallowing statements is another interesting prophecy about the ages of two children of zeus that would hold true for sometime during the lifetime of the children.4 years ago athenas age was twice helens age.4 years hence athenas age will be 4/3 times the age of helen.Find athenas present age in binary numbers during the time that the statement holds true. options a)100 b)1001 c)101 d)1100

• Helen's age before 4 year ago is x then Athena's age was 2x.
  => x=2x
  now, their age is x+4=2x+4
  after 4 years their age will be 4/3(x+4+4)=2x+4+4
  
  =>4/3(x+8)=2x+8
  =>4x+32=6x+24
  =>x=4
  
  Now Athena's age is 2x+4
  So, 2*4+4=8+4=12
  Binary of 12 is 1100
  
  So, option D is answer.
