Answer 1

Given :

• Anusha's father is 10 years more than 5 times of her present age.
• Anusha's father is 45 years old.

To Find :

• find the Age of Anusha.

Solution :

• Let Anusha's age be x.
• As by given Anusha's father's age is 45 years, also 10 years more than 5 times the age of Anusha, Hence the equation of her father's age will be alike : $\bf{5x+10=45}$

$\sf{\implies 10+5x=45}$

$\sf{\implies 5x = 45-10}$

$\sf{\implies 5x = 35}$

$\displaystyle{\sf{\implies x = \frac{35}{5}}}$

$\sf{\implies x = 7 }$

Required Answer :

Present age of Anusha is $\underline{\sf{7\:years}}$

Question

Anusha's father is 10yrs more than 5 times of her present age.If her father is 45yrs,what is her present age?

Answer

Let the present age of Anusha be 'x'

Given:-The age of Anusha's father = 45

According to the question,

The age of Anusha's father = (5x + 10)

Hence, from the given condition,

(5x + 10) = 45

=> 5x + 10 = 45

=> 5x = 45 - 10

=> 5x = 35

=> x = 7

Therefore, the present age of Anusha is 7years
