Question:

A and her grandfather differ in their ages by 50 years.  After 6 years, if the sum of their ages is 152 years, their present ages are?

Options:

24, 74

26, 76

45, 95

25, 75

Correct Answer:

45, 95

Explanation:

Sum of ages at present = 152 - (2 × 6) = 140

Difference of ages = 50

Grandfather's age = \(\frac{140 + 50}{2}\) = 95

A's age = 140 - 95 = 45

So⇒ Present ages are 45, 95
