A man is 3 years older than his wife and four times as old as his son. If the son becomes 15 years old after 3 years, the present age of his wife is :
(A) 60 years (A) 60 years
(B) 51 years (B) 51 years
(C) 48 years (C) 48 years
(D) 45 years (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.

(A) 5 (A) 5
(B) 7 (B) 7
(C) 10 (C) 10
(D) 14 (D) 14
Answer: (B) 7 Answer: (B) 7
7
=> x * 2x = 98
=> x2 =
=> x2 = 49
=> x = 77
=> x * 2x = 98
=> x2 =
=> x2 = 49
=> x = 7
Q7. ‘A’ starts his journey at 1:00 p.m. from a location P with a speed of 1 m/sec. ‘B’ starts his journey from the same location P and along the same direction at 1:10 p.m. with a speed of 2 m/sec. If ‘B’ meets ‘A’ at the location Q, then the distance PQ is : Q7. ‘A’ starts his journey at 1:00 p.m. from a location P with a speed of 1 m/sec. ‘B’ starts his journey from the same location P and along the same direction at 1:10 p.m. with a speed of 2 m/sec. If ‘B’ meets ‘A’ at the location Q, then the distance PQ is :
(A) 1.5 km (A) 1.5 km
(B) 1.75 km (B) 1.75 km
(C) 1.2 km (C) 1.2 km
(D) 1.25 km (D) 1.25 km
Answer: (C) 1.2 km Answer: (C) 1.2 km
A starts journey before B at a speed of 1 m/s. Hence A will be ahead of B
(10*60)s * 1m/s = 600m
Let A covers a distance of X after starting of B,
Then X + 600m = 2X
=> 2X - X = 600m
=> X = 600m
Hence B will cover a distance of 2X = 2 * 600m = 1200m = 1.2 kmA starts journey before B at a speed of 1 m/s. Hence A will be ahead of B
(10*60)s * 1m/s = 600m
Let A covers a distance of X after starting of B,
Then X + 600m = 2X
=> 2X - X = 600m
=> X = 600m
Hence B will cover a distance of 2X = 2 * 600m = 1200m = 1.2 km
