Question

Adnan's father is 49 years old. He is 5 years older than four times Adnan's age. What is Adnan's age?

Answer 1

Let Adnan's age be 'x'yrs

Adnan's father 5 yrs older than 4 times Adnan's age=4x+5

Adnan's father age =49yrs

4x+5=49

4x=49-5

4x=44

x=44/4

x=11

Therefore Adnan is 11yrs old

Answer 2

Adnan father age=49 years
he is 5 years older than four times of Adnan age
in equation it would be =4x +5
so Adnan age 49=4x +5
or4x=49-5
or4x=44
orx=44/4=11years
