P is 13 years older than Q, and Q's age is 6 times the age of R.
Question 1:
P is 13 years older than Q, and Q's age is 6 times the age of R. If the sum of their ages today is 117, Then what is the age of Q?
A.48 years
FeedbackLet the age of R be x. Then the age of Q is 6x, and that of P is 6x + 13. Adding the three ages, (6x + 13) + 6x + x = 117. Solving, we get x = 8. So the age of Q is 6x = 48 years.
B.49 years
C.47 years
D.50 years
