My age today is three times what it will be three years from now minus three times what my age was three years ago. How old am I?
simply:
6 x 3 = 18
complicated explanation. Let's hear from Umm Zahra



Masha'Allah you're correct:)
Here's the solution:
I am 18. If I was 18 then three times my age three years from now would be 21*3 (63). Three times my age three years ago would be 15*3 (45). Subtract 45 from 63 and I am 18.
Duaas requested.

LOL - classic example of how double negatives can trip you up. The first time I did it, I forgot the double negative (-3)
Twas good fun tho' - I can't get over the fact that I tripped over the very thing I warn my students against. 8-)
Fee amaanillah, Wassalaam
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
Please wait...
