The total of tge ages of Amar, Akbar and Ali is 80 years. What was the total of their ages three years ago?
- 74 years
- 72 years
- 71 years
- 77 years
Explanation
Given:
The total of their current ages is 80 years.
Three years ago, each of them was 3 years younger, so:
Amar's age three years ago = Amar's current age - 3
Akbar's age three years ago = Akbar's current age - 3
Ali's age three years ago = Ali's current age - 3
The total of their ages three years ago would be:
(Amar ′ s current age−3)+(Akbar ′ s current age−3)+(Ali ′ current age−3)
This simplifies to:
(Amar ′ s current age+Akbar′ s current age+Ali' s current age)−9
Since the total of their current ages is 80 years:
80−9=71
Therefore, the total of their ages three years ago was 71 years
