Solution

The correct option is B $(x + 8) (x + 55) = 860$
Let's take Mohit's age = $x y e a r s$

Hence, his mother's age = $x + 47$

$8$ years from now:

Mohit's age = $x + 8$

Age of Mohit's mother will be = $x + 47 + 8 = x + 55$

The product of their ages $8$ years from now will be $860$ .

$(x + 8) (x + 55) = 860$
