Ujjawal is 8 years older than Amar while Amar is 6 years older than Sourav. If the ratio of the ages of Sourav to the age of Ujjawal is 5 : 12, then what will be the age of Amar after 12 years? Correct Answer 28

Given:

Ratio between sourav and ujjawal is 5 : 12

Age of ujjwal is 8 years more than amar

Age of amar is 6 years more than sourav

Calculation:

Let the age of Sourav be x years.

Age of Amar be (x + 6) years

Age of Ujjawal be (x + 14) years

from these x is equal to 5 units and x + 14 is equal to 12

from these after substract x from x + 14 and 5 units from 12 units 

7 units is equal to 14 years 

1 units is equal to 2 years 

now age of sourav is 

⇒ 5 × 2

⇒ 10 years

age of Amar after 12 years is

⇒ 10 + 6 + 12

⇒ 28 years

∴ The age of amar is 28 years.
