Correct answer: (C) 19 years
Let Keeran's age = k, so Ramu's age = k+8. Seven years ago: k+8-7=3(k-7), giving k+1=3k-21, so k=11. Hence Ramu's present age = 11+8=19 years.

सही उत्तर: (C) 23 वर्ष
मान लें कीरन की आयु = k, तो रामु की आयु = k+8। सात वर्ष पहले: k+8-7=3(k-7), जिससे k+1=3k-21, अतः k=11। इसलिए रामु की वर्तमान आयु = 11+8=19 वर्ष है।
