Question 1
Brooklyn is 3 times as old as his son Dilip. After 4 years, the sum of their ages will be 56. How old is Dilip now?
Let son's age = x, then father's age = 3x
After 4 years: (3x+4) + (x+4) = 56
(3+1)x + 8 = 56
(4)x = 48
x = 12
After 4 years: (3x+4) + (x+4) = 56
(3+1)x + 8 = 56
(4)x = 48
x = 12
