A number is doubled and 9 is added. If resultant is trebled, it becomes 75. What is that number

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the number is x,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{3} of\frac{1}{4} * x = 15
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> x = 15\times 12 = 180
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> so \frac{3}{10} \times x = \frac{3}{10} \times 180 = 54
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the number is x,
\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{2}{3}x-50 = \frac{1}{4}x + 40
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
<=> \frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{4}x = 90
\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned}
<=> \frac{5x}{12} = 90
\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned}
<=> x = 216
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Friends, this sort of question is quite important in competitive exams, whenever any question come which have relation between sum, product and difference, this formula do the magic:
\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y)^2 = (x-y)^2 + 4xy
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
<=> (25)^2 = (13)^2 + 4xy
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
<=> 4xy = (25)^2 - (13)^2
\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned}
<=> xy = \frac{456}{4} = 114
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Friends you remember,
\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y)^2 = (x-y)^2 + 4xy
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y)^2 = (5)^2 + 4(336)
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y) = \sqrt{1369} = 37
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let sons age = x. Then, fathers age = 2x.
12(x—2O) = (2x - 20) so x = 22
Fathers present age = 44 years
