A.

36 years

B.

25 years

C.

63 years

D.

32 years

Correct option is C

​Given:

Ratan is one-third of Jatin

The sum of their ages is 84 years

Solution:

Let the age of Jatin be 3x year

As Ratan is one-third of Jatin

Age of Ratan = x year

=> Sum of their ages = 84

=> 3x + x = 84

=> 4x = 84

=> x = 21 year

=> Age of Jatin = 3x = 3 ×\times​ 21 = 63 year

Hence, The age of Jatin is 63 years.
