A man is 3 years older than his wife and four times as old as his son. If the son becomes 15 years old after 3 years. Then what is the present age of the wife?
60 years
51 years
48 years
48 years
D.
48 years
Let the age of son = x
Age of man = 4x
Age of wife = 4x - 3
Now,
x + 3 = 15
x = 12 years
Age of wife = 4 x 12 - 3 = 48 - 3 = 45 years
