A) 17 yr
B) 51 yr
C) 34 yr
D) 28 yr
E) None of these
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
[c] Let present age of Vishal \[=14x\] |
and present age of Shekhar \[=17x\] |
After 6 yr, age of Vishal \[=14x+6\] |
Age of Shekar \[=17x+6\] |
According to the question, |
\[\frac{14x+6}{17x+6}=\frac{17}{20}\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[20\,(14x+6)=17\,(17x+6)\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[280x+120=289x+102\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[9x=18\Rightarrow x=2\] |
Shekhar's present age \[=17\times 2=34\,yr\] |
