Question

Set up an equation and solve :
Rahul’s father is 49 years old . He is 4 years older than three times Rahul’s age . What is
Rahul’s age?

Answer 1

Answer:

15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let Rahul's age be y

then,

3*(Rahul's age) + 4 = father's age

i.e.

3y+4 = 49

3y = 49-4

3y = 45

y = 45/3

y = 15

therefore Rahul's age is 15 years
