Question

Deepak’s present age is one-third his mother’s present age. If the mother’s age was five times his age 6 years ago, what are their present ages? *

Answer 1

Answer:

Deepak's age = 12 yrs

His mother's age = 36 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Deepak's present age be x yrs

His mother's present age = 3x yrs

ATQ,

3x - 6 = 5(x - 6)

⇒ 3x - 6 = 5x - 30

⇒ 3x - 5x = - 30 + 6

⇒ -2x = - 24

⇒ x = -24/-2

⇒ x = 12

Deepak's present age = 12 yrs

His mother's present age = 3x = 3 × 12 = 36 yrs
