Question

The present age of Priya is 12 years. The age of Priya's father is 42 years. Priya's mother is 6 years younger to her father.
Then the ratio of present age of Priya's father to Priya' mother is​

Answer 1

Let Priya’s age be P and her father’s age F, now.

F = 3P …(1)

F+16 = 2(P+16), or

F = 2P+32–16 = 2P+16 …(2)

Equate (1) and (2)

3P = 2P+16, or

P = 16 and F = 48.

Priya is 16 years and her father is 48 years, now.
