    28 years

    30 years

    27 years

    Incorrect Answer

    25 years

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Let the age of younger person is x,
    Then elder person age is (x+16)
    => 3(x-6) = (x+16-6) [6 years before]
    => 3x-18 = x+10
    => x = 14.
    So other person age is x + 16 = 30

    Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
