Question:

A and her grandfather differ in their ages by 46 years.  After 5 years, if the sum of their ages is 132 years, their present ages are?

Options:

30 , 90

38 , 84 

29 , 89

33 , 88

Correct Answer:

38 , 84 

Explanation:

Sum of ages at present = 132 - (2 × 5) = 122

Difference of ages = 46

Grandfather's age = \(\frac{122 + 46}{2}\) = 84

A's age = 122 - 84 = 38

So, Present ages are 38 , 84
