present age?
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let ravi's age be x

x+15=4x

15=4x-x

15=3x

5=x

his present age is 5yrs!

Answer 2

Let the present age of Ravi be x.

Fifteen years later, Ravi age will be x+15 years.

According to the question,

→ x + 15 = 4x

⇒ 4x – x = 15

⇒ 3x = 15

⇒ x = 15/3

⇒ x = 5

Therefore, Present age of Ravi = 5 years.
