Question

Ram’s father is thrice as old as Ram. Their sum of ages is 100. What are their
respective ages.

Answer 1

ram age x

father age 3x

ram age 3x+x=100

4x=100

100/4

25

father age=25×3=75

Answer 2

Age of Ram = 25
Age of Ram’s father = 75

Explain,
Age of Ram = x
Age of father = 3x
Total age = 4x = 100
X = 100/4 = 25

So, age of Ram = x = 25 and
Age of father = 3x = 75
