The correct answer is: 21
Explanation:
Let's first assume few variables!
x = Ishann's age (in years)
y = Christopher's age (in years)
1. Ishann is 3 times as old as Christopher can be represented mathematically as:
x = 3y ---- (1)
2. Ishann is 14 years older than Christopher can be represented mathematically as:
x = y + 14 ---- (2)
Get the value of y from Equation (1) and plug it in Equation (2):
(2) => x = (x/3) + 14
3x = x + 42
2x = 42
x = 21
Hence Ishann is 21 years old!
