  1. Question 1

    Q1. A man is 24 years older than his son. In 2 years, the man's age will be twice that of his son. What is the son's current age?

    • A) 20 years
    • B) 22 years
    • C) 24 years
    • D) 26 years

    Answer: 22 years

    Explanation: Let's denote the son's current age as 'x'. So, the man's current age is 'x + 24'. In 2 years, the equation becomes x + 24 + 2 = 2(x + 2), simplifying to x + 26 = 2x + 4, hence x = 22.
