Question

20 years hence,Ashwins age will be three times his present age. What is his present age?​

Answer 1

Answer:

10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let his present age be x

Given: after 20 years Ashwin's age will be 3 times his present age

Therefore: we form an equation as follows

x+20=3x

Now we only need to solve this to find x

x+20=3x can be written as:

2x = 20

or x=20/2

Therefore x=10

Hence Ashwin's current age is 10 years.

Hope this helps
