Age of A is 6 years more than three times the age of B. After three years, A's age will be 8 years more than twice the age of B. The average of present ages of A and (in years) is:
Let the present age of B = x
A B
Present Age 3x+6 x
After 3 years 3x+6+3 = 3x+9 x+3
Given, After 3 years A's age will be 8 years more than twice the age of B
$$=$$> 3x+9 = 2(x+3)+8
3x+9 = 2x+6+8
x = 5
Average of Present ages of A and B = $$\ \frac{\ 3x+6+x}{2}$$
= $$\ \frac{\ 4x+6}{2}$$
= $$\ \frac{\ 4\left(5\right)+6}{2}$$
= 13
