    খ)
    62 years
    গ)
    69 years
    ঘ)
    72 years

    Explanation

    Let us consider Karthik as K1 and Kalyan as K2. Given k18+k1\frac{k1}{8+k1} and K2 - (K1 + 5) = 3 K2 - K1 = 8 K2 = 8 + K1 Now, k18+k1=  45\frac{k1}{8+k1}=\;\frac45 => K1 = 32 years Therefore K2 = 40 years. K1 + K2 = 72 years.
