Seema’s farther is thrice as old as Seema. After 12 years he will be just twice his daughter. Find their present ages

Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Seema be x and her father be 3x

After 12 years,

Age of Seema=x+12

Age of father=3x+12

Now we have,

[tex]3x+12=2(x+12)\\\\3x+12=2x+24\\ 3x-2x=24-12\\x=12[/tex]

Again,

Present age of her father=3x=3×12=36

Hence, the present age of Seema is 12 and her father is 36.
