Question

10. June's father is 6 times as old as June. The sum of their ages is no less than 77. What is the youngest age June can be?

Answer 1

Answer:  The youngest possible age of June is 11 years.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that  June's father is 6 times as old as June and the sum of their ages is no less than 77.

We are to find the youngest possible age of June.

Let x represents the age of June.

Then, according to the given information, the age of June's father will be 6x.

Therefore, we get

$x+6x\geq 77\\\\\Rightarrow 7x\geq 77\\\\\Rightarrow x\geq\dfrac{77}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow x\geq 11.$

That is, the age of June is greater than or equal to 11 years.

Thus, the youngest possible age of June is 11 years.
