Let the present age of Hamid = 'H' years
So, y = H + x
Or, H = y - x ...(i)
Now, age of Rani 15 years ago = (y - 15) years
Age of Hamid 15 years ago = (H - 15) years
So, (1/4) (y - 15) = (H - 15) ...(ii)
Putting the value of H as (y - x) from equation (i) into (ii), we get the following equation:
y - 15 = 4(y - x - 15) ...(iii)
Or, 3y - 4x = 45 which is exactly the same as the equation given in option (1).
Thus, option (1) is correct.
