Paula’s age, p is 5/6 years.
Given that, Raul’s grandfather is Miguel age=65 years.
How do solve age problems?
Important Statements and Equations for "Problems based on Ages":
- If the present age is y, then n times the present age = ny.
- If the present age is x, then age n years later/hence = x + n.
- If the present age is x, then age n years ago = x – n.
- The ages in a ratio a: b will be ax and bx.
- If the current age is y, then 1/n of the age is y/n.
Let Raul’s sister Paula's age be p and Raul’s age be r.
From the statement, Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age of his sister.
We can write the equation as follows r=65-60p
In part C:
39=3r-6
⇒r=15
So using the part C answer we get 15=65-60p
⇒60p=65-15
⇒p=5/6 years
Therefore, Paula’s age, p is 5/6 years.

Raul’s grandfather is Miguel, and Raul’s sister is Paula. Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age of his sister. Miguel is 65 years old. Using the results from Part C, write an equation to find Paula’s age, p (in years). (results from part C were that Rauls age is 15)
