Answer:
Pinki is 17 years and 4 months old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Pinki be x
Then,
According to the Question,
Rinki will be (x + 2) years old
and the woman will be 4(x + 2) years old
Now,
According to the Question,
(x + (x + 2) + 4(x + 2))/3 = 38
(x + x + 2 + 4x + 8) = 38 × 3
6x + 10 = 114
6x = 114 - 10
6x = 104
x = 104/6
x = 17⅓ years old
1/3 of 1 year = (1/3) × 12months = 4 months
Thus,
Pinki is 17 years and 4 months old.
