Question:

Six years ago, A's age was 18 times the present age of B. B is 2 years younger to C. If C's present age is 5 years, then what is the present age of A?

Options:

84 years

48 years

60 years

72 years

Correct Answer:

60 years

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 60 years

The logic followed here is :

If C's present age = 5 years

Then B = 3 years ( B is 2 years younger to C.)

Therefore  A's age = 54 (Six years ago)

Then A's present age = 54 + 6 = 60 years
