Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 22 years Given: Ratio of their ages = 11 : 9 10 years less than 200% of Ansu’s age is 16 years more than Pedri’s age. Calculations: Let Ansu’s age = 11x and Pedri’s age = 9x 10 years less than 200% of Ansu’s age = [(11x × 200/100) – 10] = 22x – 10 ATQ, (22x – 10) = 9x + 16 ⇒ 22x – 9x = 26 ⇒ 13x = 26 ⇒ x = 2 ∴ Ansu’s present age = 11 × 2 = 22 years |
