Question

After 14 years Neha will be three times as old as she was 6 years ago.Find her present age ?​

hello​

Answer 1

Answer:

16 Years

Step-by-step explanation:

let, the present age of Neha is 'x'

after 14 years, Neha's age = 14 + x

6 years ago, Neha's age = x - 6

given,

After 14 years Neha will be three times as old as she was 6 years ago

=> 14 + x = 3(x - 6)

=> 14 + x = 3x - 18

=> 2x = 14 + 18

=> x = 16

THEREFORE, THE PRESENT AGE OF NEHA WAS 16

Answer 2

Answer:

Lets the present age of Neha be = x

after 14 years her age will be = x+14

but

Given,

6 years ago her age was = 3(x-6)

Therefore

ATP

3(x-6)= x+14

3x-18= x+14

3x-x = 14+18

2x = 32

x = 32/2

x = 16

Therefore Neha's present age will be x+14

16+14 = 30

Neha's present age 30 years
