Answer : 4. "9, 27, 21"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 9, 27, 21 Explanation: Let Anushka age = XCharu latha 12 yrs older than Anushka so Charu latha age = x+12Kajal is thrice as old as Anushka so Kajal age = 3xThe ages of Anushka, Kajal and Charu latha together are 57 yearsi.e x + (x+12) + 3x = 57=> 5x = 45:- x = 9Anushka age = 9Kajal age = 3x = 27Charu latha age = x+12 = 21

Answer : 4. "9:1"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 9:1 Explanation: Milk = 3/5 x 20 = 12 liters, water = 8 liters If 10 liters of mixture are removed, amount of milk removed = 6 liters and amount of water removed = 4 liters. Remaining milk = 12 - 6 = 6 liters Remaining water = 8 - 4 = 4 liters 10 liters of pure milk are added, therefore total milk = (6 + 10) = 16 liters. The ratio of milk and water in the new mixture = 16:4 = 4:1 If the process is repeated one more time and 10 liters of the mixture are removed, then amount of milk removed = 4/5 x 10 = 8 liters. Amount of water removed = 2 liters. Remaining milk = (16 - 8) = 8 liters. Remaining water = (4 -2) = 2 liters. Now 10 lts milk is added => total milk = 18 lts The required ratio of milk and water in the final mixture obtained = (8 + 10):2 = 18:2 = 9:1.

Answer : 2. "13 years"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 13 years Explanation: Given R + S + M + D = 76 => R+7 : S+7 : M+7 : D+7 = 7:6:5:8 => Let the ratio = x => M+7 = 5x => M = 5x-7 => R = 7x-7 => S = 6x-7 => D = 8x-7 => R + S + M + D = 76 => 7x-7 + 6x-7 + 5x-7 + 8x-7 = 76 => 26x - 28 = 76 => 26x = 104 => x = 4 => Mahesh's present age = 5x-7 = 20 - 7 = 13 years.
