Answers
Answer:
Let the age of A be a, and age of B be b
Now, a−5=3(b−5)
a=3b−10 (1)
After 10 years,
a+10=2(b+10)
a=2b+10 (2)
From 1 and 2,
3b−10=2b+10
b=20
And, a=2b+10=2×20+10=50 years
this the age of a=50 years and age of b= 20 years
Answer:
50 years
Step-by-step explanation:
All right let's start,
Raunak age 5 years ago be x,
Shakeel age 5 years ago = 3x
Present age of Raunak = 5 + x
Present age of Shakeel = 3 × (5 + x)
= 15 + 3x
A.T.Q,
Shakeel would be twice as old as Raunak
Now,
2 (x + 15) = 3x + 15
2x + 30 = 3x + 15
2x - 3x = 15 - 30
-x = -15
x = 15
Present age of Raunak = x + 5
15+5
= 20
Present age of Raunak = 20 years
So, Present age of Shakeel =
3x + 5
(3 x 15) + 5
45 + 5
50
So, present age of Shakeel = 50 years
Hope this helps
