-
- let alex age be x years
(x-6)/18=victors age
victor is two years younger to david
so victors age is 3 years
x-6=18*3
x=60 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(0)
- (A-6)/18=v
v=D-2
v=3
d=5
So, Alex age is 60 years. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- let present age of alex is
(x-6)/18 = 5-2
x = 60 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Ans is [B] 60
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let alex age be x
subtracting 6 we get (x-6)=(remainder)/18=victors age
victor=david-2
present age of david is 5, therefore victor=3 yrs
substituting victors age we get alex's age=60 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 60 is the answer
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- D=V+2 ( A-6)/18=v
d=5 if A=60
v=3 V=3 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
