Answer 1

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Pranoti's age = x

Her aunty's age = y

mother's age = 36

x = 4 + 1/3 × 36

= 4+36/3

= 4+12

=16

pranoti's age = aunty's age (y) /2 - 4

16. = y/2 - 4

16+4. = y/2

20. = y/2

20×2. = y

40. = y

aunty's age = y =40

Answer 2

Answer:

Let Pranoti's age be x and her aunti's age be y.

Mother's age = 36 years

According to the question,

x = 4 + 1/3 * 36

x = 4 + 36/3

x = 4 + 12

x = 16

Pranoti's age = Her aunti's age (y)/2 - 4

=> 16 = y/2 - 4

=> 16 + 4 = y/2

=> 20 = y/2

=> 20 * 2 = y

=> 40 = y

Therefore, aunti's age = y = 40 years
