I. Suchitra's present age is double the age of her son.
II. Ratio between present ages of Suchitra and her mother is 2 : 3 respectively.
III. Four years hence the ratio between Suchitra's age and her son's age will be 13 : 24 respectively.

• A. Only II
• B. Only III
• C. Either I or II only
• D. Either II or III only
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A Only II

From Statements I and III,
Let Suchitra's son's present age be x years.
$\therefore$ Suchitra's present age
=2x years
After 4 years.
$\frac{2x+4}{x+4}=\frac{13}{24}$
We can get the required answer by this relation. So statement II is not required.
