Sneh's age is $$\frac{1}{6}$$ th of her father's age. Sneh's father's age will be twice of Vimal's age after 10 years. If Vimal's 8th birthday was celebrated 2 years ago,then what is Sneh's present age ?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
Vimal's present age
= (8 + 2) years
= 10 years
Sneh's father's age
= 2(10 + 10) years
= 40 years
Sneh's age
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{ = }}\left( {\frac{1}{6} \times 40} \right){\text{ years }} \cr & {\text{ = }}\frac{{20}}{3}{\text{years }} \cr & {\text{ = 6}}\frac{2}{3}{\text{years}} \cr} $$
= (8 + 2) years
= 10 years
Sneh's father's age
= 2(10 + 10) years
= 40 years
Sneh's age
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{ = }}\left( {\frac{1}{6} \times 40} \right){\text{ years }} \cr & {\text{ = }}\frac{{20}}{3}{\text{years }} \cr & {\text{ = 6}}\frac{2}{3}{\text{years}} \cr} $$

Loginthe correct answer should be 5
Because 40 years age of sneh's father will be after 10 years not at present.
Present age would be 30 and 1/6 th of 30 is 5.
Then the present age of Sneh = (1/6*30) = 5 years
