Question

16 years from now balas age would be 3 times his present age find his present age

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose his present age = x

16 years from now means (x+16)

Three times his present age means (3x)

Now if we put it in an equation it will be:

x+16 = 3x

16 = 3x-x

16= 2x

2x = 16

x = 16/2 = 8

∴ His present age would be 8 years.
