  • In 10 years, A will be twice as old as B was 10 years ago.
Question 1:
In 10 years, A will be twice as old as B was 10 years ago. If A is now 9 years older than B, the present age of B is :
A. 19
B. 29
C. 39
Feedback Let B's present age = x years. Then, A's present age = (x + 9) years.
(x + 9) + 10 = 2(x - 10)
x + 19 = 2x - 20
x =39.
D. 49
