Question

Ram is 3 times as old as his sister sudha. After three years the sum of their ages will be 62 years,find their present ages​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ram = 40

Sudha=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sudha's age be x

Then Ram's age will be 3x.

After 3 years ,

Sudha's age = x+3

Ram's age = 3x+3

x+3+3x+3=62

4x+6=62

4x=62-6

4x= 56

x=56/4

x=14

so, Ram = 14 x 3

                 42

Sudha = 14

After 3 years,

(42+3) + (14+3)

= 45 + 17

= 62

Answer 2

Answer:sudha- 15 and a half year,

Ram=46and and a half year

Step-by-step explanation:ram age= 3x

Sudha age=x

Which is 4x

After 3 years,

Sum of their age=62

4x=62

X=62÷4

X=15.5

Sudha = x = 15.5

Ram=3x=3×15.5

46.5
