Select the correct option: A) 12,38 B) 14,40 C) 16,42 D) 28,54 E) 34,60
Explanation:   Let the age of younger person is x,   Then elder person's age is (x+26)   =&gt; 2(x-8) = (x+26-8) [8 years before]   =&gt; 2x-16 = x+18   =&gt; x = 34.   So elder person's age is x + 26 = 60   Answer: Option 34,60
