Answer 1

Answer:

Piyanshu's age is 18 years.

Let Piyanshu's age be 'x'.

Age of piyanshu's father = 6 years more than 2 times piyanshu's age

Exact age of piyanshu's father=42

=2x+6=42

= 2x=42-6

=2x=36

x= 36÷2

=18.

Hope this helps. I'm sorry if there are any mistakes in the problem either in solving or in the explanation.
