A 18 years

B 21 years

C 23 years

D 17 years

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

At the time of marriage, let Sudeer's age be 4x, then Swetha's age is 3x
12 years after:
Age of Sudeer = 4x+12
Age of Swetha = 3x+12
Now the equation is 3x+12=5/6(4x+12)
Solving equation we get x=6
Hence Swetha got married at the age of 18.
