of Kapil ?
A. 17 year
B. 24year
C. 25year
D. 22year ​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge \mathbb \red{ANSWER}$

Total age of father and mother = 35 x 2 = 70 yr

and total age of father, mother and son

= > 27 x 3 = 81 yr

Age of son = 81 - 70 = 11 yr

Let the present age of Varun be x and present age of Kapil be y.

According to the questions,

x+ y = 42 ... (1)

From the question, After, 5 yr, x+5y+5=1511

= >11x +55 = 15y + 75

= > 11x - 15y = 20 .... (2)

On solving equation (1) and (2),

11x + 11y = 462

Y = 44226

Hence, present age of Kapil = 17 yr
