Question

Zac is 18 years old.

The ratio of Zac's age to Ed's age is 2:1.
Tim's age is 2/3 Zac's age.
How old is Tim?

Answer 1

Tim is 12 years

Explanation:

Given that Zac is 18 years old and Tim's age is 2/3 Zac's age, to compute Tim's age, we would multiply Zac's age with the fraction.

Such that;

Tim's age = 2/3 * 18

= 2* 18/3

= 2 * 6

= 12 years

Hence Tim is 12 years old.
