Answer 2

Answer:

X = 60, Y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

let present age of Geeta be Y and Sita be X

x-6 = 3(y-6)

x-6 = 3y-18

X= 3y-12

x-3y= -12-------(1)

after 12 years

X+12=2(y+12)

x+12=2y+24

X=2y+12

x-2y=12------(2)

x-3y= -12

x-2y=12

(-) (-) (-)

------------

-y= -24

y= 24

substitute value of y in (1)

x-72=-12

X= 60

Hence X = 60 and Y = 24
