In 36 Years, Ishaan Will Be 3 Times As Old As He Is Right Now. How Old Is He Right Now?

In 36 years, Ishaan will be 3 times as old as he is right now. How old is he right now?

Answer:

Ishaan is 18 years old now.

Step-by-step explanation:

Present Age of Ishaan: x

Age in 36 years: x + 36

Equation:

x + 36 = 3x

Solve for the present age, x:

x  + 36 = 3x

3x - x = 36

2x = 36

2x/2 = 36/2

x = 18

Ishaan is 18 years old now.

Check:

Present age: 18

Age in 36 years is 3 times his present age.

18 + 36 = 3 (18)

54 = 54  (True)
