precious father is 5times older than his daughter precious and precious is twice as old as his brother mathew.in two year time the sum of there age wil 58 how old is precious nw
We have:
f = 5p
p = 2m
f+2 + p+2 + m+2 = 58
5p+2 + p+2 + p/2+2 = 59
Hmmm. I don't get an integer answer. Inspect problem for typos, and double-check my math.
i wil do dat,here is anoda.john is twice as old as his friend peter.peter is 5year older than alice.in 5years.john wil be three times as old as alice,how old is peter nw
To determine the current age of Precious, we can break down the information given:
1. Precious' father is 5 times older than Precious.
2. Precious is twice as old as his brother, Matthew.
3. In two years, the sum of their ages will be 58.
Let's solve it step by step:
Let's assume Precious' current age as "x" years.
From the given information:
1. Precious' father's age = 5 * x years
2. Precious' age = x years
3. Precious' brother's age = x / 2 years
In two years, each person's age will increase by 2 years. Therefore:
- Precious' father's age in 2 years = (5 * x) + 2
- Precious' age in 2 years = x + 2
- Precious' brother's age in 2 years = (x / 2) + 2
According to the given information, the sum of their ages in two years will be 58:
(5 * x) + 2 + x + 2 + (x / 2) + 2 = 58
Now, let's solve the equation:
(5 * x) + x + (x / 2) + 6 = 58
(10 * x) + 2x + x + 12 = 116
13x + 12 = 116
13x = 116 - 12
13x = 104
x = 104 / 13
x = 8
Therefore, Precious is currently 8 years old.
