Sachin is younger than Rahul by 7 years. If the ratio of their ages is 7:9, find the age of Sachin

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the present ages are 4x, 7x, 9x.
=> (4x-8) + (7x-8) + (9x-8) = 56
=> 20x = 80
=> x = 4

So their present ages are: 16,28,36

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

From 2nd we get, Present ages of Abhinav and his son is 11x and 6x,

From 1st we get, Abhinav's present age = 2 * Son's age

From 3rd we get, 5 years hence, Abhinav age / Son's age = 12 / 7

From clearly we can get Abhinav age from any of two equations.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

If Rahul age is x, then Sachin age is x-7,
so (x-7)/x = 7/9
=> 9x-63 = 7x
=> 2x = 63
=> x = 31.5

So Sachin age is 31.5 - 7 = 24.5

Answer: Option D

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let's take the present age of the elder person = x
and the present age of the younger person = x – 16
(x – 6) = 3 (x-16-6)
=> x – 6 = 3x – 66
=> 2x = 60
=> x = 60/2 = 30
