Question

Sara is 7 years older than Sushil. June is 4 years younger than Sushil. If the total of their ages is 87, how old is the eldest of them?

Answer 1

Answer:

sara is the oldest one and she is 37 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

let shushil's age be X

therefore .

Sara's age = X+7

and June's age =X-4

now X+(X+7)+(X-4)= 87. (given)

3X +3= 87

3(X-1)=87

X-1 =29

X =30

therefore Sara'age is X+7

=30+7

=37
