Father is aged three times more than his son Ronit. After 8 years, he would be two and a half times of Ronit's age. After further 8 years, how many times would he be of Ronit's age?

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let Ronit's present age be x years. Then, father's present age =(x + 3x) years = 4x years.

	(4x + 8) =	5	(x + 8)
		2

8x + 16 = 5x + 40

3x = 24

x = 8.

Hence, required ratio =	(4x + 16)	=	48	= 2.
	(x + 16)		24
