01.The age of the mother today is thrice that of her daughter. After 12 years, the age of the
mother will be twice that of her daughter. The age of the daughter today is
(gv‡qi eZ©gvb eqm, Kb¨vi eq‡mi 3 ¸Y| 12 eQi ci gv‡qi eqm, Kb¨vi eq‡mi wظY n‡e| Kb¨vi eZ©gvb eqm KZ?)
Solution: Let daughter’s age be x years. Then, mother’s age = 3x years.
(3x + 12) = 2 (x + 12)
3x 12 2 x 24
x 12
Daughter’s age today = 12 years.
02. Samir’s age is one fourth of his father’s age and two-third of his sister Reema’s age.
What is the ratio of the ages of Samir, Reema and their father respectively? (mvwg‡ii eqm Zvi
evevi eq‡mi Pvi fv‡Mi GK fvM Ges Zvi †evb wigvi eq‡mi `yB-Z…Zxqvsk| mvwgi, wigv Ges Zv‡`i evevi eq‡mi AbycvZ KZ?)
Solution: Samir’s age = Father’s age = Reema’s age = x years (say)
Then, Samir’s age = x years, Reema’s age = x years
and Father’s age = 4x years.
Ratio of the ages of Samir, Reema and father = x : x : 4x = 2 : 3 : 8.
03. If the ratio of present age of Ashutosh and Vishal is 9 : 4 and their sum of present age is
52 years, find the present age of Vishal. (Avï‡Zvl Ges wekv‡ji eZ©gvb eq‡mi AbycvZ 9 : 4 n‡j Ges
Zv‡`i eZ©gvb eq‡mi ‡hvMdj 52 eQi n‡j, wekv‡ji eZ©gvb eqm wbY©q Ki|)
Solution: Let, age of Ashutosh be 9x and age of Vishal be 4x
Then, sum of both ages = 9x + 4x = 13x
⇒ 13x = 52
⇒ x = 4 years
∴ Age of Vishal = 4x = 4 × 4 = 16 years
04. Product of present age of Ram and Lakshaman is 2223 years and their present age ratio
is 19:13 find the difference age of Ram and Lakshaman. (ivg I j¶‡bi eZ©gvb eq‡mi ¸Ydj nj
2223 eQi Ges Zv‡`i eZ©gvb eq‡mi AbycvZ 19:13 nj ivg I j¶‡bi eq‡mi cv_©K¨ wbY©q Kiæb|)
Solution: Let, age of Ram be 19x and age of Lakshaman be 13x
Then, product of their ages = 19x × 13x = 247x2
According to the question, 247 x2= 2223
⇒ x2 = 2223/247
⇒ x2 = 9
⇒x=3
Hence, required difference = 19x – 13x = 6x = 6 × 3 = 18 years.

05. The ratio of present age A and B is 13:10 after 2.5 years their ratio will be 32:25 then
find the present age of A. (eZ©gvb eqm A Ges B Gi AbycvZ 13:10| 2.5 eQi c‡i Zv‡`i AbycvZ 32:25 n‡e
Zvici A Gi eZ©gvb eqm wbY©q Kiæb|)
Solution: Let, present age of A = 13x and present age of B = 10x
According to question,
(13x + 2.5)/(10x + 2.5) = 32/25
⇒ (13x + 2.5) × 25 = (10x + 2.5) × 32
⇒ 325x + 62.5 = 320x + 80
⇒ 5x = 17.5
⇒ x = 3.5
06. Ages of two persons differ by 16 years. If 6 year ago, the elder one be 3 times as old
the younger one, find their present age? (`yB e¨w³i eqm 16 eQ‡ii g‡a¨ cv_©K¨| 6 eQi Av‡M, eo
GKR‡bi eqm ‡Qv‡Ui ‡P‡q 3 ¸Y n‡j, Zv‡`i eZ©gvb eqm ‡ei Kiæb?)
Solution: Let the age of an younger person be A
age of elder person = (A + 16)
According to the question, we have
3(A – 6) = (A + 16 – 6)
⇒ 3A – 18 = A + 10
⇒ 2A = 28
⇒ A = 14
∴ The younger and elder person age is 14 years old and 30 years old.
07. Twice the age of X is thrice the age of Y. 8 years back, the difference between the ages
of X and Y was 18 years. What is the present age of X? (X Gi wظY eqm Y Gi eq‡mi wZb¸Y| 8
eQi Av‡M, X Ges Y-Gi eq‡mi g‡a¨ cv_©K¨ wQj 18 eQi| X Gi eZ©gvb eqm KZ? )
Solution: 2 times the age of X = 3 times the age of Y
Difference between X and Y, 8 years back = 18 years
2X = 3Y
⇒X:Y=3:2
Let the present age of X and Y be 3R and 2R respectively
⇒ 3R – 2R = 18
⇒ R = 18
⇒ 3R = 3 × 18 = 54
∴ The present age of X is 54 years

08. A person’s age is 3 times the age of his friend. The total of their ages is 64 years. Find the
ages of the person and his friend. (GKRb e¨w³i eqm Zvi eÜyi eq‡mi 3 ¸Y| Zv‡`i ‡gvU eqm 64 eQi| e¨w³ Ges
Zvi eÜyi eqm ‡ei Ki|)
Solution: A person’s age is 3 times the age of his friend.
The total of their ages is 64 years.
Let the age of friend be x
Let the age of person be 4x
According to the question, we have
Total of their ages = x + 3x
Thus,
x + 3x = 64
4x = 64
x = 16
∴ The age of the friend = 16,
The age of the person = 16 × 3 = 48
∴ The age of the person and friend is 48 and 16 years.
09. The mean of the ages of father and his son is 27 years. After 18 years, the father
will be twice as old as his son. Their present ages are? (wcZv I cy‡Îi eq‡mi Mo 27 eQi| 18 eQi ci
evevi eqm n‡e Zvi ‡Q‡ji ‡P‡q wظY| Zv‡`i eZ©gvb eqm KZ?)
Solution: Let the ages of father and son be x and y respectively,
Then the mean ages of father and son be (x + y)/2,
According to the given conditions
(x + y)/2 = 27
⇒ (x + y) = 54
⇒ x + y = 54 —eqn (1)
After 18 years
x + 18 = 2(y + 18)
⇒ x + 18 = 2y + 36
⇒ x – 2y = 18 —eqn (2)
Solving equations 1 & 2 we get
x = 42 & y = 12
Hence, age of father is 42 and son is 12

10. The present age of Ram is 5 times the age of his son. After 12 years the age of Ram
will be twice the age of his son, find the present age of son. (iv‡gi eZ©gvb eqm Zvi ‡Q‡ji
eq‡mi 5 ¸Y| 12 eQi ci iv‡gi eqm Zvi cy‡Îi eq‡mi wظY n‡e, cy‡Îi eZ©gvb eqm wbY©q Kiæb|)
Solution: Let the present age of ram and his son be x years and y years respectively.
x = 5y
x + 12 = 2 (y+ 12)
Also, x + 12 = 2 (y + 12)
⇒ x = 2y + 12
Replacing x in terms of y we get,
5y = 2y + 12
⇒ 5y - 2y = 12
⇒ 3y = 12
⇒ y = 12/3
⇒ y = 4 years
∴ The present age of son = 4 years.
11. Kevin is 4 years older than Margaret.Next year Kevin will be 2 times as old as
Margaret.How old is Kevin? (‡Kwfb gvM©v‡i‡Ui ‡_‡K 4 eQ‡ii eo| c‡ii eQi ‡Kwf‡bi eqm n‡e 2 ¸Y
gvM©v‡i‡Ui ‡_‡K | ‡Kwf‡bi eqm KZ?)
Solution: Let x be Kevin's present age.
Then Margret's present age is x-4
Next year Kevin will be years old x+1 and Margaret will be years x-4+1 =x-3 years old
Sincs next year Kevin will be 2 times as old as Margaret,
We can write the equation, x + 1 = 2(x-3)
⇒ x + 1 = 2x -6
⇒ 2x - x = 1 +6
∴x =7
∴ Kevin's present age is 7 years
