Quantitative Aptitiude (CLAT) Problems based on Ages

Father is 3 yr. older than the mother and the mother's age is now twice the daughter's age. If the daughter is 20 yr. old now, then the father's age when the daughter was born is

20 yrs

40 yrs

43 yrs

23 yrs

Explanation:

Let father's age is F,
Mother's age is M
Given, Daughter's age=20years
According to question
M=2(daughter's age)
=2*20=40
And, F = M+3 = 40+3 = 43
When daughter was born (i.e. 20 years ago)
Father's age = 43-20 = 23
