Question
Present age of ‘S’ is 50% more than that of ‘T’.
6 years ago, ‘S’ was 2.5 times as old as ‘T’. Find the present age of ‘T’.Solution
Let the present age of ‘T’ be ‘x’ years
Therefore, present age of ‘S’ = 1.5x years
ATQ;
(1.5x – 6) = 2.5 × (x – 6)
Or, 1.5x – 6 = 2.5x – 15
Or, 9 = x
Therefore, present age of ‘T’ = 9 years
