Question

Ramu’s father is thrice as old as Ramu. If father’s age is 45 years, then find Ramu’s age.

• A. 45 years
• B. 30 years
• C. 15 years
• D. 10 years

Answer 1

The correct option is C 15 years

Let Ramu’s age be x then, Ramu’s father’s age will be 3x.
3x = 45
$x=\frac{45}{3}=15$
$\therefore$ Ramu’s age = 15 yrs.
