Answer is 48 years Explanation:    Let Seema’s son’s present age = x years $\therefore$ Seema’s present age = 4x years Seema’s husband’s present age $= 4x ×\frac{7}{4} = 7x \text { years}$ $\therefore x + 4x + 7x = 32 × 3$ $=>12x = 96$   $=>x = \frac{96}{12}= 8$ $\therefore$ Required difference = 7x - x = 6x = 6 × 8 = 48 years Nithin K ? answered May 21 '2017 at 21:23 All Comments
