Question 40 Back to Exercise
Today is Varun's birthday. One year, from today he will be twice as old as he was 12 years ago. How old is Varun today ?

  • A 20 years
  • B 22 years
  • C 25 years Correct
  • D 27 years
Correct Answer: Option C

Let Varun's age today = x years.

Then, Varun's age after 1 year = (x + 1) years.

Therefore x + 1 = 2 (x - 12) => x + 1 = 2x - 24 => x = 25.
