Question

twenty six years from now, i will be thrice my present age. what is my present age?

Answer 1

Let your present age is x.

After 26 years your age will be x + 26 yrs.

A/Q,

⇒ x + 26 yrs = 3x

⇒ 3x - x = 26 yrs

⇒ 2x = 26 yrs

⇒ x = 26 yrs / 2

∴ x = 13 yrs.

Hence, your present age is 13 years.

Answer 2

let ur present age= x
x+26=3x
26=3x-x
26 = 2x
26/2 =x
13 =x
