Question

15 years from now ravi's age will be 4 times his present age,what is ravi's present age?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let Ravi's present age be x years.

After 15 years, his age will be (x+15) years.

It is given that after 15 years, Ravi's age will be four times his present age.

Therefore, 4x = x + 15

=>. 4x - x = 15

3x = 15

⇒x= 15/3

=5

Hence, Ravi's present age is 5 years.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

Present age of Ravi (x) = 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

At present:

Age of Ravi = x years

After 15 years:

Age of Ravi = (x+15) years

According to the problem given,

"Fifteen years from now Ravi's age will be 4 times his present age."

4x = x + 15

=> 4x-x = 15

=> 3x = 15

Divide each term by 3, we get

=> x = 5

Therefore,

Present age of Ravi (x) = 5 years
