The present age of Rahul is 7 times of present age of Varun, who is 1 / 3 times of present age of Divya. The present age of Divya’s husband is 5 / 4 times of present age of Divya. Find the sum of present age of Divya and Varun if difference between present age of Rahul and Divya’s husband is 26 years.

The present age of Rahul is 7 times of present age of Varun, who is 1 / 3 times of present age of Divya. The present age of Divya’s husband is 5 / 4 times of present age of Divya. Find the sum of present age of Divya and Varun if difference between present age of Rahul and Divya’s husband is 26 years. Correct Answer 32 years

let present age of Rahul, Varun, Divya and Divya’s husband be R years, V years, D years and H years respectively.

Given, R = 7V

And. V = D / 3

⇒ D = 3V

Also, D / H = 4 / 5

⇒ H = 5D / 4

Replacing D in terms of V we get,

H = (15 V) / 4

And, R - H = 26

⇒ 7V - (15 V) / 4 = 26

⇒ V = 8 years

⇒ D = 24 years

∴ the sum of present age of D and V is = 24 + 8 = 32 years

Hence, (d) is the correct answer.
