Answers
Angus is 30 year old 6x5=30
Given: Agnus is 5 times older than her son. After 6 years she will be 3 times older than him .
To Find: the present ages of Agnus and her son
Solution:
Son's present age = x years
Agnus' present age = 5x years
After 6 years son age = x + 6 years
After 6 years Agnus age = 5x + 6 years
After 6 years she will be 3 times older than him .
=> 5x + 6 = 3(x + 6)
=> 5x + 6 = 3x + 18
=> 2x = 12
=> x = 6
Son's present age = 6 years
Agnus' present age = 5(6)= 30 years
present ages of Agnus and her son are 30 and 6 years respectively
