Answer:40

Step-by-step explanation:This is a variation question

From the statement. Let the mental age be M and the chronological  age be C, then

IQ ∝M ∝1/C

⇒ IQ ∝ M/C

Introducing the proportionality constant

IQ = KM/ C

Given : M = 15, C = 30 , 1Q = 20

Substitute the given values into the equation

i.e 120 = K x 15/ 30

    120 = k/2

therefore k = 240

substitute k = 240 into the equation, we have

IQ = 240M/C

To find C when IQ is 120 and M is 20, we will substitute into the generated formula

i.e 120 = 240 x 20 / c

     120c = 480

            C = 480/120

             C = 40

Therefore , the chronological age of a person with mental age of 20 and IQ of 120 is 40
