Three years ago, Sherman was twice as old as Clive. If Clive’s present age is c, which expression represents Sherman’s present age in terms of Clive’s age?
A. 2c-3
B. 2c+6
C. 2(c-3)
D. 2c+3

Respuesta :

Clive's age = c
Sherman's age = s

Three years ago, Sherman was twice as old as Clive
s-3 = 2*(c-3)
s = 3 + 2c - 6
s = 2c - 3

Answer is A

Let, the age of Clive = c
Age of sherman = s

Then, (s - 3) = 2(c - 3)
s - 3 = 2c - 6
s = 2c - 3

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!
