1. Rahim is 12 years old. He is three times older than Karim. What will be the age of Rahim when he is two times older than Karim?

  • A. 15 years
  • B. 15 years
  • C. 15 years
  • D. 15 years

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

If karim's age is x , then Rahim's age will be 3x.

According to question, 3x = 12 

or, x = 4 

After y years, Rahim's age will be doubled than karim. 

 12 + y = 2(4 + y)  

∴y = 4 

At the time, Rahim's age = 3x + y = 3*4 + 4 = 16 

ans: 16 yrs
