Question

The present age of Rupak's mother is three times the present age of Rupak . After 5 years their ages will add up to 58 years. Find the present age of Rupak.​

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider that age present of rupak is => X

that's why mom's age => 3x (three times)

=> after five years => x+5, 3x+5

total age of both is 50 means

=> x+5+3x+5 = 58

=> 4x+10 = 58

=> 4x = 48

=> x = 12

Answer 2

Answer:

let the present age of rupak is x

then present age of rupaks mother is 3x

after 5 years rupak age is x+5

and rupaks mother age is 3x+5

and sum is 58

we can write

• rupak age +rupak mother age=58
• (x+5)+(3x+5)=58
• 4x+10=58
• 4x=58-10
• 4x=48
• x=48/4
• x=12

rupaks present age is 12

and rupaks present age is 3x

3(12)=36
