B. 10 years
C. 12 years
D. 15 years
E. None of these
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Vimal's present age= (8 + 2) years
= 10 years
Sneh's father's age
= 2(10 + 10) years
= 40 years
Sneh's age
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{ = }}\left( {\frac{1}{6} \times 40} \right){\text{ years }} \cr & {\text{ = }}\frac{{20}}{3}{\text{years }} \cr & {\text{ = 6}}\frac{2}{3}{\text{years}} \cr} $$

If Sneh's father's age will be twice of Vimal's age after 10 years... Then what's his present age? Isn’t it (40-10) = 30 years???
Then the present age of Sneh = (1/6*30) = 5 years
