You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
mr. pablo is 30 years older than his daughter hannah
P = 30 + H....(1)
His age is also 16 times that of his daughter.
P = 16H.......(2)
Using Equation (1)
P = 30 + H
Replacing P with (30 + H) from Equation (2)
16H = 30 + H
Collect like terms
16H - H = 30
15H = 30
H = 2
Current ages:
Hannah = 2yrs old
Mr Pablo = 32yrs old
Hope this helps:-)
