Question

Sage is 7 years older than Jonathan. If Jonathan is x years old, how old was Sage 10 years ago?

Answer 1

Answer:

(x-3) years

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Age of Jonathan= x years

Sage is 7 years older than Jonathan

It means

Age of Sage=(x+7) years

We have to find the age of Sage 10 years ago.

10 Years ago,

Age of Jonathan=(x-10) years

Age of Sage=(x+7-10) years

Age of Sage=(x-3) years

Hence, 10 years ago, age of Sage =(x-3) years
