    D)  10 years, 12 years

    Correct Answer: A

    Let the present age of Kajal be \[x\] years, then the present age of Kajal's father be \[3x\] yrs. After 12 yrs, Kajal's age \[=x+12\] years. After 12 yrs, Kajal's father age \[\Rightarrow \]\[3x+12\]years A/Q, \[3x+12=2(x+12)\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[3x+12=2x+24\] \[\therefore \]\[x=12\] Kajal's age =12 years His father's age \[=12\times 3=36\]years
