Question

hasan is twice as old as javed who is 3 years older than danish if hasan’s age is 5 times Danish’s age how old is javed?

Answer 1

Answer:  Javed is 5 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Hasan is twice as old as Javed and Javed is 3 years older than Danish. Hasan's age is 5 times that of Danish's age.

We are to find the age of Javed.

Let the age of Danish be h years.

Then, Javed's age will be (h + 3) years and Hasan's age will be 5h years.

Since Hasan's age is twice that of Javed, so we must have

$5h=2(h+3)\\\\\Rightarrow 5h=2h+6\\\\\Rightarrow 5h-2h=6\\\\\Rightarrow 3h=6\\\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{6}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow h=2.$

Therefore Javed's age is given by

$h+3=2+3=5.$

Thus, Javed is 5 years old.
