Question

Shreya's mother is 40 years old. Shreya's
mother's age is 10 years more than twice of
Shreya's present age. Find Shreya's present
age.​

Answer 1

$\Large{\red{Answer:15\:years}}$

Shreya's age = ?

Shreya's mother's age = 40 years

Let Shreya's age be x.

Shreya's mother's age is 10 plus two times shreya's age, so let shreya's age be = 2(x + 10)

$\Large{\blue{Let's\:solve,}}$

➡ 40 = 2x + 10

➡ 40 = 2x

➡ 40 - 10 = 2x

➡ 30 = 2x

➡ 30/2 = x

➡ x = 15

$\Large{\boxed{x = 15\:years}}$

Ans. Shreya's age is 15 years.

$\Large{\green{Verification:}}$

Shreya's mother's age = 40

Shreya's age = 15

40 = 2{x=15} + 10

40 = 30 + 10

40 = 40

LHS = RHS

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge \star answer \star$

Given:-

• Shreya's mother's age = 40yrs

To find:-

• Shreya's age

Let's find Shreya's age:-

Shreya's mother's age= 40yrs

Let Shreya's age be = x

{Shreya's mother's age is 10 plus two times Shreya's age, So let Shreya's age be:-

= 2(x+10)

Solution:-

40 = 2x + 10

40 = 2x

40 - 10 = 2x

30 = 2x

30/2 = x

x = 15

$\huge verification$

Shreya's mother's age = 40

Shreya's age = 15

40 = 2{x=15} + 10.

40 = 30+10

40=40

LHS=RHS
