For a number to be divisible by 4, the number formed by the last two digits of that number must be divisible by 4.For a number to be divisible by 9, the sum of its digits must be divisible by 9.Among the choices, choices (a) and (b) are divisible by 4 but of the first two choices, only choice (b) is divisible by 9.Hence choice (b) is divisible by both 4 and 9.
Let the age of the son be x and the age of the father be y.Therefore, x + y = 65 ..........(i)or, 2 x (x + 5) = (y + 5)or, 2x + 10 = y + 5or, 2x - y = 5 ...................(ii)From equations (i) and (ii), x = 20, y = 45
