Read Solution (Total 10)
-
- (u-t1)=3(m-t1) & (a-t1)=25 => u-3m+2a=50 -----------(1)
(m-t2)=(a-t2)/2 & (u-t2)=34 => -u+2m-a=-34 -----------(2)
given u+m+a=100-------------------(3)
from (1),(2) &(3)
u=40 ans

- given usha age is 3x when misha is x .... Asha is 25
Usha is 34......and Misha is y when asha is 2y
compare individually 3x-34=x-y=25-2y
by solving above equations we get x=9;y=16
ages are 34,16,32
sum=34+16+32=82
given there sum is 100 which is short 18 years
add each 6 years we get usha age 40 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(8)
