Answer 2

Correct question:-

The present age of Sita's father is three times present age of Sita.After six years, the sum of their ages will be '68' .Find their present ages.

Given:-

Solution:-

∴ Present age of Sita's father = 3y years.

★ After 6 years :-

↠ Age of Sita = (y + 6) years.

↠ Age of Sita's father = (3y + 6) years.

According to question:-

⇒ (y + 6) + (3y + 6) = 68

⇒ y + 6 + 3y + 6 = 68

⇒ 4y + 12 = 68

⇒ 4y = 68 - 12

⇒ 4y = 56

⇒ y = 56/4

⇒ y = 14

★ PRESENT AGES:-

⇒ Age of Sita = y = 14 years.

⇒ Age of father = 3y = 3(14) = 42 years.

Therefore,

Present age of Sita is 14 years & present age of father is 42 years.
