Answer 1

The age of victor after 3 years is 24.

Option: C

Explanation:

Mr.Smith is 81 years older than victor.

After 3 years Mr.smith will be four times of victor's age.

⇒After 3 years, age of Mr.Smith will = 81+3.

∴After 3 years, age of Mr.Smith will be 84.

Let us consider victors age as x.

We know that four times of victor's age = Mr.Smith's age after 3 three years.

⇒4x=84.

x=
`(84)/(4) .`

x=21.

So we found that age of Victor is 21 and further we have to find his current age. i.e. his age after 3 years.

Victor's current age =21+3.

=24.

∴ The victor's current age is 24 years old.
