Correct Answer: 48 years
Solution : Given: Let the age of Reena = R and the age of Reena's father = F (I) The sum of Reena's and her father's age = R + F = 60 (II) The difference between their ages = F – R = 36 Add both the equations (I) and (II) we have R + F + F + (–R) = 60 + 36 2F = 96; F = 48 Put the value of F in equation (I) R + 48 = 60; R = 12
So, the age of Reena's father is 48 years. Hence, the third option is correct.
