Question

Parvathi's father's age is 5 years more than three times Parvathi's age. Find Parvathi's
age, if his father is 44 years old.

please give step by step answer ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let Parvathi's age be x years.

Then, his father's age = (3x + 5) years.

But his father's age = 44 years (given)

3x + 5 = 44

3x = 44-5

3x = 39

x = 39/3

x = 13

Hence, Parvathi's age is 13 years.
