A wizard named Nepo says "I am only three times my son's age. My father is 40 years more than twice my age. Together the three of us
are a mere 1240 years old." How old is Nepo?

• let the age of nepo be x years,age of his father is (40+2x),age of his son (x/3)
  (40+2x)+x+(x/3)=1240
  solving this equation we get the age of nepo i.e. (x) is 360 years old

• Nepo's age be N ,his son's age be S and his father's age be F
  acc. to the qstn.,N=3(S);F=2N+40;N+F+S=1240;
  solving the equations we will get S=120 and so as the age of Nepo that is 120(3)=360 yrs old

• n=3*s
  f=40+2n
  n+s+f=1240
  so, n+s+40+2n=1240
  put the value of n
  3s+s+40+2(3s)=1240
  10s+40=1240
  10s=1240-40
  10s=1200
  s=120
  now put the value of s
  n=3s
  n=3*120
  n=360
