In 16 years John will be double the age of
Sonal's present age. Find the present ages of
both of them.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the present age of sonal be x

therefore john age be x-6

acc to question

(x-6+16)=2x

x+10=2x

2x-x=10

x=10

therefore sonals present age will be 10 yrs

nd nhon present age will be 10-6 =4 yrs

Answer 2

Answer:

Let sister's age be x.

Then John's age=x-6.

After 16 years,

means x-6+16=2(x)

x-6+16=2x

x+10=2x

10=2x-x

10=x

Therefore,Sonal's age is 10 and John age is 4.

Sum of age=14years
