Answer: (D) 45 years
Answer: (D) 45 years
Answer: (D) 45 years
The son becomes 15 years old after 3 years.
Hence son's present age = 15 years - 3 years = 12 years
Man is four times as old as his son.
Hence Man's present age = 12 years * 4 = 48 years
Man is 3 years older than his wife.
Hence present age of his wife = 48 years - 3 years = 45 years.
The son becomes 15 years old after 3 years. Hence son's present age = 15 years - 3 years = 12 years Man is four times as old as his son. Hence Man's present age = 12 years * 4 = 48 years Man is 3 years older than his wife. Hence present age of his wife = 48 years - 3 years = 45 years.
The son becomes 15 years old after 3 years. Hence son's present age = 15 years - 3 years = 12 years Man is four times as old as his son. Hence Man's present age = 12 years * 4 = 48 years Man is 3 years older than his wife. Hence present age of his wife = 48 years - 3 years = 45 years.
