Correct answer is: None of these Explanation: Let the present age of Meena and Fiona be 16x and 13xyears respectively. According to the question, $⟹\frac{16x-4}{13x-4}=\frac{14}{11}$ $⟹176x-44=182x-56$ $⟹182x-176x=56-44$ $⟹6x=12=>x=\frac{12}{6}=2$ Therefore, Fiona's age after four years = 13x + 4 $=13\times 2+4=30\text{ years}$ Nithin ? answered Aug 15 '2022 at 8:38 All Comments
