Given :

  • Mr qasim is 24 years older than his son sajid.

  • After 8 years the age of mr qasim will be twice of the age of sajid.

To find :

  • The age of Mr qasim now = ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of son be x years

So, the present age of father will be x + 24 years

After eight years,

Age of son = x + 8

Age of father = x + 24 + 8

= x + 32

According to the given condition:

➮ 2(x + 8) = x + 32

➮ 2x + 16 = x + 32

➮ 2x - x = 32 - 16

➮ x = 16

As, we know that,

Present age of Mr. Qasim x + 24 years.

Substituting the values, we get,

= 16 + 24

= 40.

Therefore, The Present age of Mr. Qasim = 40 year's.

Question:-

  • Mr Qasim is 24 years older than his son Sajid. After 8 years, the age of Mr Qasim will be twice of the age of sajid, what is the age of Mr Qasim now?

♀Solution :-

Given :

  • Mr Qasim is 24 years older than his son Sajid.
  • After 8 years, the age of Mr Qasim will be twice of the age of sajid.

To Find :

  • The present age of Mr Qasim.

Let the present age of sajid be x years.

Then, the present age of Mr Qasim = (x+24) years

After 8 years,

  • The age of sajid = (x+8) years
  • The age of Mr Qasim = (x+24+8) years = (x+32) years

Atq,

)2(x+8)=x+32

➡2x+16=x+32

➡2x-x=32-16

➡x=16

The present age of Mr Qasim is (16+24) years = 40 years.
