Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Given

Present age of Sahil's Mother = There times the present age of Sahil

After 5 Years later the sum of their ages is 66 years

To Find

Present age of Sahil

Solution

☯ Assuming the present age of Sahil as x and the present age of his mother as 3x

After 5 Years

Age of Sahil = x+5

Age of his Mother = 3x+5

✭ According to the Question :

→ (x+5) + (3x+5) = 66

→ x + 5 + 3x + 5 = 66

→ 4x + 10 = 66

→ 4x = 66-10

→ 4x = 56

→ x = 56/4

→ x = 14

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Therefore,

● Present age of Sahil = x = 14 years

● Present age of his mother = 3x = 3×14 = 42 years

∴ Present age of Sahil is 14 years
