Seema is younger than Reema by 4 years. After 4 years the sum of their ages will be 44 years. What is Reema’s present age?

Correct option is A

Given:

Seema is younger than Reema by 4 years

After 4 years sum of their ages will be 44 years

Solution:

Let Seema’s age be x

Then Reema’s age will be x+4

After 4 years their ages will be:

Seema’s age = x+4

Reema’s age = (x+4)+4 = x+8

Sum of ages = 44

(x+4) +(x+8) =44

2x+12 = 44

x=16years

Seema’s age = 16years

Reema’s age = 16+4 = 20years
