Rakhi is 20 years older than her daughter Shikha. In 6 years, Rakhi will be twice as old as Shikha. Therefore, Rakhi’s present age is ____ years.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 34.
Let the age of Sikha = S and Rakhi = S + 20
(S + 20) + 6 = 2(S + 6)
⇒ S + 26 = 2S + 12
⇒ S = 14
Rakhi's present age = 14 + 20 = 34 years
