\large\to{\underbrace{\underline{\sf{Understanding\:the\:concept:-}}}}

Here, the question has told that Teena is 3 years younger than his brother. If the sum of her and her brother's age is 32 years. What are their present ages.

ANSWER:-

  • Teena's age is 14.5.
  • Her brother's age is 17.5.

GIVEN:-

  • Teena is younger than her brother = 3 years
  • Sum of their ages = 32 years

TO FIND:-

  • Their recent ages are = ?

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION:-

  • Let the age of Teena's brother = (x + 3)
  • Let the age of Teena be = x

➳ x + (x + 3) = 32

➳ x + x + 3 = 32

➳ 2x + 3 = 32

➳ Taking 3 to RHS, so it will become -3

➳ 2x = 32 - 3

➳ 2x = 29

➳ Taking 2 to RHS, it will go in divide (÷).

➳ x = 29 / 2

➳ x = 14.5

Hence Teena's age is 14 years 5 months (14.5 years).

  • Finding her brother's age:-

➳ We assumed his brother's age = (x + 3)

➳ x = 14.5

➳ Her brother's age = 14.5 + 3

➳ Her brother's age = 14.5 + 3 = 17.5

➳ Her brother's age= 17.5 years

Hence, her brother's age is 17 years 5 months (17.5).
