Question

showbiz mothers present age is 6 times Sobers present age age 5 years from now will be one third of his mother's present age what are their present age​

Answer 1

Answer:

Showbiz's present age is 5 while his mother's present age is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say,

Showbiz's Present age is, x

so,

Showbiz's Mother's age is 6 times of Showbiz present age.

x = 6x

after 5 years his age will be 1/3 of his mother's present age.

so,

x+5 = 1/3 (6x)

x+5 = 2x

=> 2x-x = 5

=> x = 5

So, Showbiz's present age is 5, and his mother's age is 6(5) = 30.

Also, after 5 years his age will be 1/3 of his mother's present age, ( 1/3x30 = 10 )

which means,

5 year current age and after 5 years Showbiz will be of 10 years.

Result:

So their current ages are 5 and 30 years.

P.S:

I love detailed answers :)
