Answer 2

Given:

(Assumption = Let the present age of Deepak be 'x'.)

Age of Deepak 5 years ago shall be = (x-5)

So present age of Deepak will be = 4(x-5)÷3

To Find:

The present age of Deepak ( Value of 'x').

Solution:

Let equate Deepak's present age

4(x-5) ÷3 = x

4 (x-5) = 3x ⇒ 4x - 20 = 3x

⇒ x = 20 years.

Hence, the present age of Deepak is 20 years.
