Question

Two-third of my current age is the same as three-fourth of that of one of my cousins. My age 3 years ago was the same as what my cousin's age will be 1year from now. What is my current age (in years)?(answer=36 explain)​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

your current age =x years

your cousin's age=y years

according to the problem

2/3x=3/4y

y=2/3x×4/3=8/9x

and x-3=y+1

x-3=8/9x+1

x-8/9x=1+3

1/9x=4

x=36 years
