Question

The present of Sita’s father is three times the present age of Sita. After six years sum of their

ages will be 69 years. Find their present ages.

Answer 1

Sita’s present age = x
Sita’s father present age = y

According to question,
y = 3x
and
(x + 6) + (y + 6) = 69
x + y = 69 - 12 = 57
x + 3x = 57
4x = 57
x = 57/4 = 14.25

y = 14.25 * 3 = 42.75

Sita’s present age is 14.25 years
Her father’s present age is 42.75 years
