Correct option is C
Given:
Father's present age is 44 years.
4 years ago, the son's age was 40% of the father's age.
Formula Used:
Age n years ago = Present age - n
Present age = Age n years ago + n
Solution:
First, determine the father's age 4 years ago:
According to the problem, the son's age 4 years ago was 40% of the father's age at that time.
To find the son's present age, add 4 years to his age from 4 years ago:
Son's present age=16+4
$on's present age=20
The son's present age is 20 years.
Final Answer
