Six years ago Anita was P times as old as Ben was. If Anita is now 17 years old, how old is Ben now in terms of P ? Choose the most appropriate option
A) 11/P + 6	B) 11/P + 7	C) 11/P + 2	D) 11/P + 1	E) 11/P + 8
Let Ben’s age now be B   Anita’s age now is A.   (11/P + 6 - 6) = P(B - 6)   But 11/P + 6 is 17 and therefore 11 = P(B - 6)   11/P = B-6   (11/P) + 6 = B   11/P + 6nswer: 11/P + 6
