Q.5
Riyansh father is five years more than three times the age of Riyansh. His father is 44 years old. Set up an equation and solve it to find Riyansh present age?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of riyansh be x

therefore, his father's age= 3x+5

a/q,

3x+5=44

=> 3x = 44-5

=> 3x= 39

=> x= 13

so,Riyansh present age=13

Answer 2

GIVEN:

• Riyansh father is five years more than three times the age of Riyansh.
• His father is 44 years old.

TO FIND:

• What is the present age of Riyansh ?

SOLUTION:

Let the present age of Riyansh be 'x' years

We have given in question that, Riyansh father is five years more than three times the age of Riyansh.

• 【3x + 5】

In this case, the age of Riyansh and father is 44 years old.

【3(Riyansh's age) + 5 = Father's age 】

According to question:-

On putting the given values in the formula, we get

$\rm{\longrightarrow 3x +5 = 44 }$

$\rm{\longrightarrow 3x = 44-5 }$

$\rm{\longrightarrow 3x = 39 }$

$\rm{\longrightarrow x = \cancel\dfrac{39}{3} }$

$\bf{\longrightarrow x = 13 }$

• Riyansh's age = x = 13 years

❝ Hence, the age of Riyansh is 13 years ❞
