• A. 40 years
• B. 32 years
• C. 47 years
• D. 72 years

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 47 years

Solution: According to the given information, The sum of the current ages of Vishal and Aditi is 105 years. Let the Vishal's age be x And the Aditi's age be y x + y = 105 ----(1) If Aditi is 25 years younger than Vishal then, x = y + 25 ----(2) Putting value of equation (2) in equation (1), y + 25 + y = 105 2y = 80 y = 40 y is Aditi's present age, which is 40. Pritam is 7 years older than Aditi So Pritam's age = y + 7 = 40 + 7 = 47. Hence, the correct answer is 47.
