Neha's father's age is 5 years more than three times Neha's age. Neha's father is 44 years old, then Neha's age will be :
Answer: B
Neha is 13 years old.
Let Neha's age be \(n\). Her father's age is five more than three times hers:
\[ \begin{aligned} 3n + 5 &= 44 \\ 3n &= 39 \\ n &= 13 \end{aligned} \]
Check: three times 13 is 39, and 39 + 5 = 44. The option 39 years is the value of \(3n\), a step short of the answer. 12 years would give a father of 41, and 8 years a father of 29.
