We have 1.6 =\(\frac { y }{ 1.5 } \) \(\Rightarrow\) 1.6 x 1. 5 = \(\frac { y }{ 1.5 } \) x 1.5 [multiplying both sides by 1.5]
1.6 x 1.5 = y \(\Rightarrow\) 2.40 = y
y = 2.4, Which is the required solution

Let the present age of son be x yr.
Then, the present age of Arnan =3x yr
10 yr ago, age of Arnan = (3x - 10) yr and age of son
= (x -10)yr
According to the question, (3x -10) = 5 (x -10)
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x - 10= 5x - 50
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x - 5x = - 50 + 10 [transposing -10 to RHS and 5x to LHS]
\(\Rightarrow\) - 2x = - 40 \(\Rightarrow\) 2x = 40 \(\Rightarrow\) x = \(\frac { 40 }{ 2 } \)=20 [dividing both sides by 2]
\(\therefore\) Age of son = x = 20 yr
and age of Arnan = 3x = 3 x 20 = 60 yr
Hence, the present ages of Arnan and his son are 60 yr and 20 yr, respectively
9.
Let the age of Baichung be x yr.
Then, age of Baichung's father = (x + 29) yr
and age of Baichung's grandfather = (x + 29) + 26 = (x + 55)yr
According to the question,
x + (x + 29) + (x + 55) = 135
\(\Rightarrow\) x + x + 29 + x + 55 = 135
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x +84 =135
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x = 135 - 84 [transposing 84 to RHS]
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x = 51 \(\Rightarrow\) x = \(\frac { 51 }{ 3 } \) = 17
Age of Baichung = x = 17 yr
Age of Baichung's father = (x + 29) = (17 + 29) = 46 yr
and age of Baichung's grandfather = (x + 55)
= (17 + 55) = 72 yr
10.
Let the three consecutive integers be x, (x + 1)and (x + 2).
According to the question,
Sum of consecutive integers = 51
\(\Rightarrow\) x + (x + 1)+ (x + 2) = 51
\(\Rightarrow\) x + x + l + x + 2 = 51
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x + 3 = 51 \(\Rightarrow\) 3x = 51 - 3 [transposing 3 to RHS]
\(\Rightarrow\) 3x = 48 \(\Rightarrow\) x = \(\frac { 48 }{ 3 } =16\) [dividing both sides by 3]
\(\therefore\) First integer = x = 16
second integer = x + 1= 16 + 1= 17
and third integer = x + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18
Hence, the required integers are 16, 17 and 18.

4t - 3 - (3t + 1)= 5t - 4
\(\Rightarrow\) 4t - 3 - 3t - 1= 5t - 4 \(\Rightarrow\) t - 4 = 5t - 4
\(\Rightarrow\) t - 5t =-4 +4 -4t = 0 \(\Rightarrow\) t = 0
17.
( )
Let two consective multiples of 10 be x and (x + 1)
10 xx + 10 x (x + 1) = 210 \(\Rightarrow\) 10x + 10x +10 = 210
\(\Rightarrow\) 20x = 210 - 10 = 200 \(\Rightarrow\)x = 200 \(\div\) 20 = 10
So the smaller multiple is 10
18.
( )
\(\because\) x + 18 = 4x \(\Rightarrow\) 4x - x = 18
3x = 18 \(\Rightarrow\) x = 6yr
19.
( )
\(\because\) (p x 14) - 19 =21 \(\Rightarrow\)149 -19 = 21
14p = 40 \(\Rightarrow\) p=\(\frac { 40 }{ 14 } =\frac { 20 }{ 7 } =2\frac { 6 }{ 7 } \)
