সমাধান
সঠিক উত্তর: Option D
Let at present,
Woman's age be x
and her son's age be y
Then, A/Q,
x=30y ................................................. (1)
18 years later,
Woman's age = x+18
her son's age= y+18
Now, A/Q,
x+18=3*(y+18)
or, x+18=3y+54
or, x-3y=54-18
or, x-3y= 36
or, 30y - 3y = 36 [From eq (1)]
or, 27y = 36
or, y = 36/27 = 12/9 = 4/3
So, y= 4/3
Then, x= 30*4/3 = 40 years
