Question

Kiran's father is 65 years old. He is 8 years older than three

times Kiran's age. Find Kiran's age?​

Answer 1

kiran is 19 years old.

Explanation:

kiran's father age = 65

let kiran's age be x

kiran's father is 8 years older than three times kiran's age means 8 + 3x

so according to the question equation is

65 = 8 + 3x

65 - 8 = 3x

57/3 = x

19 = x

therefore kiran's age is 19 years.

Answer 2

let kiran's age be x

kiran's father's age is 65

acc.to ques

kiran's father is 8 years older than 3 times kiran's age ....which gives us the equation as follows

8+3x =65

therefore

3x =65-8

3x =57

x =57/3

x= 19 ans

so kiran's age is 19 years.
