Question

Ram Is Half As Old As Sam. Sam is Three Times As Old As Tony. The Sum Of Their Ages Is 55. How Old Is Ram​

Answer 1

Ram Is Half As Old As Sam.

• R = S/2

Sam is Three Times As Old As Tony

• S = 3T
• T = S/3

Sum Of Their Ages Is 55

• S + R + T = 55
• S + S/2 + S/3 = 55
• 6S/6 + 3S/6 + 2S/6 = 55
• 11S = 330
• S = 30

• Sam Age → 30 years
• Ram Age → 15 years
• Tony Age → 10 years

Answer 2

Ram is 5years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of Tony be x yrs

As per question,

$\frac{3x}{2} + 3x + x = 55$

$\frac{3x}{2} + 4x = 55$

$\frac{3x + 8x}{2} = 55$

11x/2=55

11x =110

x = 110/11

x = 10

Age of ram is 10/2 =5years
