Anna's present age ---- x
uncle's age------- 6x
12 years from now:
Anna = x+12
uncle = 6x + 12
x+12 = (1/3)(6x+12)
x+12 = 2x + 4
-x = -8
x = 8
Anna is now 8, the uncle is 48
12 years from now,
Anna will be 20 , and uncle will be 60
uncle's age------- 6x
12 years from now:
Anna = x+12
uncle = 6x + 12
x+12 = (1/3)(6x+12)
x+12 = 2x + 4
-x = -8
x = 8
Anna is now 8, the uncle is 48
12 years from now,
Anna will be 20 , and uncle will be 60
