Answer 2

QUESTION:-

father is twice as old as his daughter. If 20 years ago, the age of the father was 10 times the age of the daughter, what is the present age of the father?

40 years

32 years

33 years

45 years

22 years

EXPLANATION:-

Let the present age of the father be 2x

So, the present age of the daughter = x

According to the question,  

⇒2x-20 = 10(x-20)

⇒2x-20 = 10x – 200

⇒8x = 180

⇒x= 22.5

Thus, the present age of father = 22.5 × 2 = 45 years
