Answer 1

Answer:

If Kiran is 15 years old: His aunt is 32

If Kiran is 30 years old: His aunt is 47

If Kiran is x years old: His aunt is x + 17

If Kiran's aunt is 60 years old: Kiran is 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We know that Kiran's aunt is 17 years older than Kiran. So their difference in ages is 17 years.

A)

If Kiran is 15, Kiran's aunt will be his age plus 17 years, so:

• 15 + 17
• 32

If Kiran is 30, Kiran's aunt will be his age plus 17 years, so:

• 30 + 17
• 47

If Kiran is x years old, Kiran's aunt will be his age plus 17 years, so:

• x + 17

Nothing can be simplified further

B)

If Kiran's aunt is 60, Kiran will always be 17 years younger than his aunt.

So:

• 60 - 17
• 43

Kiran would be 43 years old.
