Answer 1

Hey user

Here is your answer:-


Age of Neeta = 24 years.

Age of her brother = 1/6 × Neeta age

= 1/6 × 24

= 4 years

Let after x years Neeta will be 3 times old as her brother

( 24 + x ) = 3( 4 + x )

24 + x = 12 + 3x

12 = 2x

x = 6 .

So after 6 yrs Neeta will be 3 times old as her brother
