The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we can follow these logical deductions: 1. **Identify the Variables**: - Let the age of Prabhu be represented as \( P \). - Since Mani is double the age of Prabhu, we can express Mani's age as \( M = 2P \). - Ramona is half the age of Prabhu, so we can express Ramona's age as \( R = \frac{1}{2}P \). 2. **Given Information**: - We know that Mani's age \( M \) is 60 years. 3. **Set Up the Equation**: - From the relationship \( M = 2P \), we can substitute the value of \( M \): \[ 60 = 2P \] 4. **Solve for Prabhu's Age**: - To find \( P \), divide both sides of the equation by 2: \[ P = \frac{60}{2} = 30 \] - So, Prabhu is 30 years old. 5. **Calculate Ramona's Age**: - Now, we can find Ramona's age using the equation \( R = \frac{1}{2}P \): \[ R = \frac{1}{2} \times 30 = 15 \] - Thus, Ramona is 15 years old. **Final Answer**: Ramona's age is 15 years. ---
