Rahul’s father is 4 years more than four times Rahul’s age. Find Rahul’s age, if his father is 56 years old.

Answer 1

let Rahul's age be x years
So, father's age = 4x+4

According to the question,

4x+4=56
4x=56-4
4x=52
x=56/4
x=14


VERIFICATION

We know that 4x+4=56

Putting x=14

(4×14) + 4 = 56
52 + 4 = 56
56 = 56

Hence, verified.
