Question

Rayyan age is 1/6of that of hisuncle. In twelve years the age of rayyan will be1/3of that of his uncle what will be his uncle age after 12 years

Answer 1

Answer:

60 yrs

Explanation:

Let uncle's age be x yrs

and let Rayyan's age be 1/6*x yrs

ATQ, After 12yrs , their ages =

uncle's= x+12yrs & Rayyan's = 1/6+12yrs

=> 1/3(x+12) = 1/6x +12

=> 1/3x + 4. = 1/6x + 12

=> 1/3x-1/6x = 12-4

=> x = 8*6 = 48

Therefore,

hence, uncle's age after 12yrs

= (x+12) = 48+12 = 60yrs
