Question
My grandmother was 9 times older to me 18 years ago. She
would be 3 times of my age 9 years from now. 9 years ago, what was the ratio of my age to that of my grandmother?Solution
Let my age 18 years ago be x years My grandmother’s age at that time = 9 x years My present age = (x + 18) years My grandmother’s present age = (9 x + 18) years According to question 3(x + 18 + 9) = (9 x + 18 + 9) 3 x + 81 = 9 x + 27 9 x - 3 x = 81 – 27 6 x = 54 x = 9 Now, ratio of ages 9 years ago = (x + 18 -9 )/(9x +18 - 9) = (9 + 18 - 9)/(9 × 9 + 18-9 )=18/90 = 1:5
- Identify x such that x% of 540 plus {1080 ÷ x of 9} × 6 gives 162
360 × 9 ÷ 3 + 120 + 900 ÷ 5 = ?
2350 – 4830 + 9570 + 3350 – 1720 = ?
12.5% of 384 - 16.66% of 66 = √16 + √? + 22
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
? = 60% of 48% of (20 × 350) + 180
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
(555 + 385 - 535) ÷ 15 X ? = 36 X 30
Find the simplified value of the given expression:
What is the value of 7/9-11/12+12/16-1/8?
48 ÷ 6 × √25 + 13 × 8 = ?
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
(308 – 154) ÷ 11 = ? ÷ 15
