    B)               8 years

    C) 4 years             

    D) 2 years

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let the age of Shakti and Kanti is 8x and 7x respectively. Then, after 10 years, \[\frac{8x+10}{7x+10}=\frac{13}{12}\] \[96x+120=91x+130\]             \[5x=10\]               \[x=2\] Hence, the difference in years between their ages \[=8x-7x=x=2\]years
