1.

One year ago, the ratio of Gauravs and Sachins age was
6: 7 respectively. Four years hence, this ratio would become
7: 8. How old is Sachin ?
A. 32 years

B. 34 years

C. 36 years

D. 38 years

Answer:OptionC
Explanation:
Let Gauravs and Sachins ages one year ago be 6x
and 7x years respectively.Then, Gauravs age 4 years
hence = (6x + 1) + 4 = (6x + 5) years.
Sachins age 4 years hence = (7x + 1) + 4 = (7x + 5) years.
[6x+5/7x+5] = (7/8)8(6x+5) = 7 (7x + 5)
48x + 40 = 49x + 35
x = 5.
Hence, Sachins present age = (7x + 1) = 36 years.

2. Abhays age after six years will be three-seventh of his

fathers age. Ten years ago the ratio of their ages was 1 : 5.
What is Abhays fathers age at present?
A.50 years
B.48 years C.52 years D.46 years
Answer:OptionA
Explanation:
Let the ages of Abhay and his father 10 years ago be x
and 5x years respectively.Then, Abhays age after 6 years
= (x + 10) + 6 = (x + 16) years.
Fathers age after 6 years = (5x + 10) + 6 = (5x + 16) years.
(x + 16) = 3/7 (5x + 16)
7 (x + 16) = 3 (5x + 16)
7x + 112 = 15x + 48
8x = 64
x = 8.
Hence, Abhays fathers present age = (5x + 10) = 50
years.

3.Sachin is younger than Rahul by 4 years. If

their ages are in the respective ratio of 7:9,
how old is Sachin?
A.16 years B.18 years C.28 years D.None
of these
Answer:OptionD
Explanation:
Let Rahuls age be x years. Then, Sachins
age = (x-7) years(x-7)/x=7/9
9x -63 = 7x
2x = 63
x = 31.5.
Hence, Sachins age = (x-7) = 24.5 years

4.

The ratio between the present ages of P

and Q is 4 year old than P what will be the
ratio of the ages of P and Q after 4 year?
A.3:4
B.3:5
C.7:8
D.4:3
Answer:OptionC
Explanation:

Let Ps age and Qs age be 6x years

and 7x respectively.Then, 7x6x =4 x
= 4.
Required sum = (6x + 4): (7x + 4) =
28:32 = 7:8.
