    A father is twice as old as his son. 20 years back, he was twelve times as old as his son. What ate their present ages?

    A) 24, 12              

    B) 44, 22

    C) 48, 24              

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let the age of \[=x\,yr\] \[\therefore \]      Age of father \[=2x\,yr\]             \[(2x-20)=12(x-20)\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2x-20=12x-240\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[10x=240-20\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=22\] \[\therefore \]      Age of son \[=22\,yr\] and       age of father \[=44\,yr\]
