Question
Rams father is thrice old as ram was 2 years 5 years ago from now Ram'snfather will be 6 years more than two times of what is RAM present age ?
Solution
The question seems to be a bit confusing, but I'll try to break it down as best as I can.
Let's denote: R = Ram's current age F = Ram's father's current age
From the problem, we know that:
- Ram's father is thrice as old as Ram was 2 years ago. This can be written as: F = 3*(R-2)
- Five years from now, Ram's father will be 6 years more than two times Ram's age at that time. This can be written as: F+5 = 2*(R+5) + 6
Now we have two equations and two unknowns, so we can solve the system of equations.
From the first equation, we can express F as F = 3R - 6.
Substitute F in the second equation:
3R - 6 + 5 = 2R + 10 + 6 3R - 1 = 2R + 16 R = 17
So, Ram's current age is 17 years old.
