- Let the age if granddaughter be x
- Let the age of grandfather be 9x
- Given, grandfather is 56 years older than granddaughter = x + 56
- According to the question,
9x = x + 56
➾ 9x - x = 56
➾ 8x = 56
➾ x = \frac{58}{8}
➾ x = 7
Present age of granddaughter = x years
➾ 7 years
Present age of grandfather = 9x years
➾ 9 × 7
➾ 63 years
