A) 36 yr, 9 yr
B) 39 yr, 6 yr
C) 42 yr, 12yr
D) 25 yr, 10yr
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Let the present ages of mother and son be x years and \[(45-x)\]years. Then, \[(x-5)(45-x-5)=4\,\,(x-5)\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{x}^{2}}+41x-180=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=36\] \[\therefore \]The present ages of mother and son are 36 yr and 9 yr respectively.You need to login to perform this action.
