Answer / ans
let ronit's present age be x
the father's age will be =x+3x=4x
after 8 years-4x+8=5/2(x+8)
3x=24
x=8
therefpre,required ratio is 4x+16/x+16= 48/2=2
so option A is correct!

Answer / charan
it is 2.2 times.Suppose rohit's age is 24, then his
father's age is 24*3=72. after 8 years rohit's father is 80
& rohit's 32 which is 2.5 times more. after 8 more years
father's age is 88 and rohit's 40 which is 2.2 times more

Answer / vignesh
You can also solve this problem by taking son's age as x and father's age as y. First, y = 4x as it is 3 times 'more' than that of his son. Then after 8 years son's age will be x+8 and father's age will be y+8=5/2(x+8) after solving you will get x = 8 and y = 32. Then after 16 years let father be n times of son's age i.e.
y + 16 = n(x + 16).
or 32 + 16 = n(8 + 16)
[putting x = 8 and y = 32]
or 48 = 24n,
or n = 2.
Therefore father is 2 times his son's age after 16 years.

Answer / sindhu
father=f and his son=s
f=3s
after 8 years,
f+8=2.5(s+8)
sub f=3s
3s+8=2.5(s+8)
s=24 and f=72
further 8 years,
s=32 and f=80
so ans is 2 and half times

Answer / anand
Ronit's age is X.
His father's age is 3x.
After 8 years
5/2(x+8)=(3x+8)
5(x+8)=2(3x+8)
5x+40=6x+16
x=24
Ronit's age after 16 years is X+8+8=40
His father's age is 3x+8+8=88
he would be 2+1/5 time of ronit's age.
I dont know whether it is right or wrong. But when i
multiply ronit age(after 16yrs) with 2+1/5 is equql to his
father's age(after 16 yrs).
Everyone said that father is aged 3 time more than his son
ronit, so that only you all take 4x instead of 3x, why cant
you take it as 5x , it is also more than 3 na.

• 10 digit number N has none of its digits repeating. The first two digits me N are divisible by two, the first 3 digits are divisible by 3, and the first 4 digits are divisible by 4 and so on such that the entire number is divisible by 10. find N.
There was a ques on work something like 2 typists type 2 papers in 4 hrs then in how much time will 5 typists take or something like that.
Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 9 + X + Y – Z where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be
