shaan is 333 times as old as Christopher and is also 141414 years older than Christopher.
How old is Christopher?

Respuesta :

First, let's assign variables to these uncomfortably old people:

s = Shaan's age

c = Cristopher's age

The question gives us two equations,

s = 333c

and

s = 141414+c

We can input s = 141414+c into the first equation to replace s.

141414+c = 333c

Subtract both sides by c:

141414 = 332c

Divide:

141414/332 = c

c = 425[tex]\frac{314}{332}[/tex]

c = 425[tex]\frac{157}{166}[/tex] years old

Answer:

7 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Christopher's age is x years then:

3x = x + 14

2x = 14

x = 7.
