Answer: Option D
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Let present ages of Sachin and Jatin are 8x and 11x respectively.After 10 years,
(8x +10)/(11x +10) = 13/16
128x + 160 = 143x + 130
15x = 30
x = 2.
Sachin's age = 8x = 8 *2 = 16 years.
Jatin's age = 11x = 11*2 = 22 years.
Difference of their age = 22 -16 = 6 years
