Seeta got married 6 years ago. Today her age is $1\frac{1}{4}$ times her age at the time of her marriage. Her son's age is $\frac{1}{10}$ times her present age. What is the present age of her son?
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 3
Let her age at marriage be $x$. The marriage was 6 years ago, so her present age is $x+6$. Given, $x+6=1\dfrac{1}{4}x=\dfrac{5}{4}x$ $\Rightarrow 4x+24=5x$ $\Rightarrow x=24$ $\text{Present age}=24+6=30$ years $\text{Son's age}=\dfrac{1}{10}\times30=3$ years
