20 years ago, Antony’s age was 1/2 of what his age now is. What is his age now?
-
- 20 years
- 40 years
- 35 years
- 30 years
Correct Option: B
Suppose the present age of Antony is P years.
20 years ago his age was | years | 2 |
the present age of Antony - 20 years = | 2 |
⇒ P - 20 = | 2 |
⇒ 2P – 40 = P
⇒ 2P – P = 40
∴ P = 40 years
Hence , the present age of Antony is 40 years.
