age of C = 3/6*60= 30yrs

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

The sum of the ages of A, B, and C is

60 years. If their ages are in ratio of

1: 2: 3.

To find:-

Find the age of C?

Solution:-

The ratio of ages of A,B and C = 1:2:3

Let they be X,2X,3X

Let the age of A = X years

Let the age of B = 2X years

Let the age of C = 3X years

Sum of their ages

= X+2X+3X years

=6X years

Sum of their ages = 6X years

According to the given problem

Sum of their ages = 60 years

=> 6X = 60

=>X = 60/6

=>X = 10 years

2X = 2×10 = 20 years

3X = 3×10 = 30 years

The ages of A,B and C are 10 years , 20 years and 30 years respectively.

Answer:-

The age of C for the given problem is 30 years
