In 2002, Meenu's age was one-third of the age of Meera, whereas in 2010, Meenu's age was half the age of Meera, What is Meenu's year of birth ? Correct Answer 1994
Given :
In 2002, Meenu's age was one-third of the age of Meera, whereas in 2010, Meenu's age was half the age of Meera.
Calculations :
Let the age of Meera in 2002 be 'M'
So the age of Meenu in 2002 will be M/3
Age of Meera in 2010 will be (M + 8) years
Age of Meenu after 8 years will be (M/3) + 8 years
According to the question
(M/3) + 8 = (1/2) of (M + 8)
(2M/3) + 16 = M + 8
M/3 = 8
⇒ M = 24 years
Age of Meera in 2002 = M = 24 years
Age of Meenu in 2002 = M/3 = 8 years
Date of birth of menu = 2002 - 8
⇒ 1994
∴ Option 2 will be the correct choice.
