Question

Stephen is 2 years older than Sushil. Krutika is 4 years younger than Sushil. If the total of their ages is 61, how old is the eldest of them?

Answer 1

Answer:

SUSHIL'S AGE = 19.6

STEPHEN 'S AGE = 21.6

KRUTIKA 'S AGE = 15.6

Step-by-step explanation

LET SUSHIL 'S AGE BE = x

= STEPHEN 'S AGE = x + 2

= KRUTIKA 'S AGE = x - 4

= x + (x + 2) + (x - 4) = 61

= 3x + ( 2 - 4) = 61

= 3x + ( -2) = 61

= 3x + (-2) - ( - 2) = 61 - ( -2 )

= 3x = 59

= 3x / 3 = 59/3

= x = 19.6
