of the person and his friend :​

Answer 1

Answer:

persons age=x

other persons age =3x

4x=64

therefore x= 16 and 3x= 48

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the friend's age be x.

Then, person's age = 3x

Sum of their ages = x+3x= 64

4x=64

x=64/4

x=16 years

So, friend's age = x= 16 years

Person's age = 3x= 3*16 = 48 years...
