Question

Q1. Six years ago Nikita was P times as old as Rahul was. If Nikita is now 17 years old, how old is Rahul now in terms of P ?

(11/P) + 6

P/11 +6

17 - P/6

17 / P

Accepted Answer

Answer : (11/P) + 6

Let Rahul's age now be B and Nikita's age now is A.
⇒ (A - 6) = P(B - 6)
But A is 17
Therefore, 11 = P(B - 6)
⇒ 11/P = B-6
⇒ B = (11/P) + 6
