    B is 8 years elder to A and B is also 8 years younger to C. 12 years hence, the respective ratio between the ages of A and C will be 5 : 9. What is the sum of present ages of A, B and C

  • 32 years
  • 48 years
  • 72 years
  • 42 years
  • 36 years
  • Explanation:

    Let the present age of A = x years

    Age of B = (x+8) years

    And age of C=(x+16) years

    According to question,

    x+12/x+16+12=5/9

    9x+108=5x+140

    4x=32

    x=8 years

    Age of A = 8 years

    Age of B = 16 years

    Age of C = 24 years

    ∴ Sum of present ages of A, B and C

    = 8+16+24

    =48 years
