Question

Penelope is now 3 times the age of jaslin. If jaslin will be 12 in 3 years, how many years ago was Penelope 13 years ago?

Answer 1

Penelope is 14 years old.

Explanation:

- Jaslin is 9 years old (since she'll be 12 in 3 years)

- So, you multiply 9 by 3 (since Penelope is 3 times Jaslin's age), which gives you 27.

- Then minus 13 from 27 (since we're solving for how old Penelope was 13 years ago), which gives you 14

Hope this helps!
