(a) 20YRS
(b) 25YRS
(c) 15YRS
(d) 10YRS
Read Solution (Total 9)
-
- daughter's present age is x
father's present age is (5/2)*x
5 years ago father's age is (5x/2)-5=3(x-5)
Therefore,x=20 years
so, ans is a. - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(24) No(2)
- F=5/2(d)
F-5=3(d-5)
(5/2)d-5=3d-15
5d-10=6d-30
D=20 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 5 years ago her age was 20.
So her present age become 20+5 =25... - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(5)
- daughter's present age is x
father's present age is (5/2)*x
5 years ago father's age is (5x/2)-5=3(x-5)
Therefore,x=20 years
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- present ages x:5x/2
3(x-4)=5x/2-4
3x-12=(5x-8)/2
6x-24=5x-8
x=16 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(7)
- 20
5/2x-5=3(x-5)
5x-10=6x-30
x=20 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- here f=5d/2;
f-5=3(d-5)
5d/2-5=3d-15
5d-6d/2=10
d=20; - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- option-a
f=5/2(d)
f-5=3(d-5)
by solving 2 equations we get d=20 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Present age's of father and daughter are 2.5x , x
5 year's ago it was three times, 2.5x+5 = (x+5)3
0.5x = 10
x = 100/5 = 20 years - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
