Question:

15 years from now shastri's age will be 4 times the present age. What is the age of Shastri?

Answer:

Present age = 5 years

Solution:

Let the present age of shastri be x

According to question,

15 years for now = x + 15

4 times the present age = 4x

x + 15 = 4 × x

x + 15 = 4x

15 = 4x - x

15 = 3x

x = 15/3

x = 5

So the present age of Shastri is 5 and 15 years later Shastri's age will be 20

Verification:

=> x + 15 = 4 × x

=> 5 + 15 = 4 × 5

=> 20 = 20
