Question

If Bertha were 10 years younger, Thomas be one quarter Ann's age, Likewise, if Ann were 12 years older, she'd be twice he'll be twice Bertha's age. What age are all of the girls?

Answer 1

LET ME HELP YOU WITH YOUR QUERY!

LET ANN'S PRESENT AGE BE X YEARS.

THEREFORE,THOMAS'S AGE=X/4 YEARS.

ALSO,BERTHA'S AGE=X-10 YEARS.

ALSO,IF ANN WAS 12 YEARS OLDER(ANN'S AGE=X+12),THEN,

THOMAS=(X+12)/2 YEARS.

BERTHA=(X+12)/2/2=(X+12)/4 YEARS.

NOW,COMAPRING BOTH SITUATIONS,

THOMAS'S AGE AFTER 12 YRS=>X/4+12=(X+12)/2

=>X/2 + 24=X+12

=>X+48=2X + 24

=>2X-X=48-24=24

THEREFORE,X=24 YEARS.

SUBSTITUTING IN THOMAS'S AGE=X/4=24/4=12 YEARS.

ALSO,SUBSTITUTING IN BERTHA'S AGE=X-10=24-10=14 YEARS.

HENCE,AGE OF ALL THE THREE GIRLS ARE AS FOLLOWS,

ANN'S AGE=24 YEARS.

BERTHA'S AGE=14 YEARS.

THOMAS'S AGE=6 YEARS.
