Question

Amit is as much younger to barkha as he is older to chaman . If the sum of the ages of barkha and chaman is 48 years then what is the present age of amit

Answer 1

Answer:

Age of Amit is 24 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Amit be X.

Let the age of barkha be Y.

Let the age of chaman be Z.

Now it is given that sum of the age of barkha and chaman is 48 years.

So, Y+ Z = 48.

Now as per question,

Y-X = X-Z

2X = Y+Z

2X = 48

X=(48/2) =24

Answer 2

The present age of amit is 24 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Amit is X years.

Let the present age of Barkha is Y years.

And let the present age of Chaman is Z years.

As per the given data in question, Amit is as much younger to barkha as he is older to chaman that means

=> Y - X = X - Z

     2X =Y + Z

And it is also given that the sum of the ages of barkha and chaman is 48 years , that means

=> Y + Z = 48

=> 2X = 48

    X = \frac{48}{2}

    X = 24

So, The present age of amit is 24 years
