Question

If Arpita present age is is thrice Shilpa’s age if Shilpa’s age if Shilpa’s age three years ago was x then what is Arpitas present age

Answer 1

Answer:

here you go

Step-by-step explanation:

let Shilpa's age be x + 3 because there years ago it was x.

Arpita's age is thrice Shilpas age, so arpitas age is 3 × ( x + 3)

so let the equation be,

3× (x +3) = x + 3

3x + 9 = x + 3

9 - 3 = x - 3x

6 = -2x

-2x = 6

x = 6/-2

x = -3

shilpa's age is x +3, which is -3 + 3 = 0 ( which means she is just born)

whereas arpitas age is three time shilpas age. so arpitas age is 0 + 3 =3

so Arpita is three years.
