Question

the age of benny is 5 years older than anwar the age of chandu is 2 years elder than anwar if the product of the age of benny and chandu is 120
find the age of each

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that, man is 5 years older than his wife and wife is thrice as old as daughter.

Daughter is 10 years old.

Let the man's age be M, wife's age be W and daughter's age be D.

Thus according to given condition, we have

M=W+5 ....(1),

W=3D ....(2)

and D=10 ....(3)

Putting d=10 in equation (2), we get

W=3D=3×10=30

Put W=30 in equation (1), we get

M=W+5=30+5=35

So, man's age when his daughter was born will be 35−10=25 years.
