    Question

    Srinivas has just got married to a girl who is 4 years younger than him. After 5 years their average age will be 33 years. Find the present age of the girl.

    A.

    35 years

    B.

    30 years

    C.

    26 years

    D.

    31 years

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Srinivas's wife is 4 years younger than him.
    After 5 years, their average age will be 33 years.
    Solution:
    Let Srinivas's current age be x.
    Then, his wife's current age will be x - 4.
    After 5 years, their ages will be:
    Srinivas's age: x + 5
    Wife's age: x – 4 + 5 = x + 1
    The average of their ages after 5 years is given as 33 years:
    (x+5)+(x+1)2=33\frac{(x + 5) + (x + 1)}{2} = 33​​
    2x+62=33\frac{2x + 6}{2} = 33​​
    2x + 6 = 66
    2x = 60
    x = 30
    Now, the present age of the girl (Srinivas's wife) is:
    x − 4 = 30 – 4 = 26
    Thus, The present age of the girl is 26 years.
