Problema Solution

4times the age of b exceed the age of a by 20years and 1/3the age of a exceed the age of b by 2 years find their age

Answer provided by our tutors

4b = a + 20

a/3 = b + 2

a = 3b + 6

a = 4b - 20

3b + 6 = 4b - 20

-b + 6 = -20

-b = -26

b = 26

Therefore, b is 26 years old and a is 84 years old.
