Answer 1

Given:

Raju's father's age is 5 years more than three times of Raju's age.

The age of Raju's Father = 44 years

Calculation:

Let the age of Raju be x

According to the question

⇒ 3x + 5 = 44

⇒ 3x = (44 – 5)

⇒ 3x = 39

⇒ x = 13 years

Thus, the age of Raju is 13 years.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
