Correct Answer: 20 years
Solution :
Given:
The age of Hema after 10 years = 40 years
⇒ The present age of Hema = 40 – 10 = 30 years
10 years ago, the age of Hema
⇒ 30 – 10 = 20 years
And, 10 years ago, the age of Geeta
⇒ 20 – 10 = 10 years
Thus, the present age of Geeta
⇒ 10 + 10 = 20 years.
So, the present age of Geeta is 20 years. Hence, the second option is correct.
