Question

Joan is six times john's age.six years later,the age of joan will be 1/3 of john's age.what is the present age of joan

Answer 1

Answer:

John’s current Age = x

Sister’s current age = 5

After three years, John’s new age = x+3

Sister’s new age = 8

We know, John would be twice old as her sister

(x + 3) = 2 x 8

x+3 = 16

x = 16–3 = 13

John is about to or has already hit puberty
