The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Understand the given information We know that: - The total age of A, B, and C five years from now will be 105 years. - The present age of A is 35 years. - The present age of B is 25 years. ### Step 2: Calculate the ages of A and B five years hence - Age of A five years hence = Present age of A + 5 = 35 + 5 = 40 years - Age of B five years hence = Present age of B + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30 years ### Step 3: Set up the equation for the total age According to the problem, the total age of A, B, and C five years hence is 105 years. Therefore, we can write the equation: \[ \text{Age of A (5 years hence)} + \text{Age of B (5 years hence)} + \text{Age of C (5 years hence)} = 105 \] Substituting the ages we calculated: \[ 40 + 30 + \text{Age of C (5 years hence)} = 105 \] ### Step 4: Simplify the equation Now, we simplify the equation: \[ 70 + \text{Age of C (5 years hence)} = 105 \] ### Step 5: Solve for the age of C five years hence To find the age of C five years hence, we subtract 70 from both sides: \[ \text{Age of C (5 years hence)} = 105 - 70 \] \[ \text{Age of C (5 years hence)} = 35 \] ### Conclusion The age of C five years hence will be **35 years**. ---
