  1. The ratio of the present age of Puneet and Appu is 2 : 3. After 3 years the ratio of their age will be 3 : 4. The present age of Puneet is :
    1. 3 years
    2. 6 years
    3. 9 years
    4. 4 years
Correct Option: B

Let the present age of Puneet and Appu be 2x and 3x years respectively.
After 3 years,

2x + 3
=
3
3x + 34

⇒  9x + 9 = 8x + 12
⇒  x = 3
∴  Present age of Puneet
= 2x = 2 × 3 = 6 years
