Question : Directions: A mother said to her son, When you were born I was the same age as you are now. If 5 years ago, the age of the son was 16 years, find the present age of the mother.
Option 1: 42 years
Option 2: 32 years
Option 3: 38 years
Option 4: 37 years
Correct Answer: 42 years
Solution : Given: 5 years ago son's age = 16 years Son's present age = 16 + 5 = 21 years Now according to the question – Age of mother when the son was born (21 years ago) = Present age of the son 21 years ago mother's age = 21 years. Present age of mother = 21 + 21 = 42 years
So, the present age of the mother is 42 years. Hence, the first option is correct.
