Question : Direction: 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?
Option 1: 12 years
Option 2: 15 years
Option 3: 19.5 years
Option 4: 25 years
Correct Answer: 15 years
Solution : The ratio between the ages of Arun and Deepak is 4:3
Arun's present age = 4x and Deepak's present age = 3x
After 6 years, Arun's age will be 26 years.
⇒ 4x + 6 = 26
⇒ 4x = 20
⇒ x = 5
So, Deepak's present age = 3x = 15
Hence, option second is correct.
