Question

Robin is Nithin's younger brother. If Robin is 5 years younger than Nithin, find Robin's age in terms of Nithin's age.

Answer 1

Robin's age is n - 5

Explanation:

Let n represent Nathan's age. Robin is younger, 5 years younger. Robin's age should be a smaller number than Nathan's age. So we'll take away 5 years from Nathan's age:

n - 5

This is Robin's age in terms of Nathan's age.
