Correct Question
Aaron is 5 year younger than Ron. Four years later. Ron will be twice as old as Aaron. Find their present ages?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Ron = x.
Then the present age of Aaron = x + 5.
Four years later,
- Aaron's age = x + 4
- Ron's age = x + 5 + 4
A/Q,
2(x + 4) = x + 5 + 4
➻ 2x + 8 = x + 9
➻ 2x + 8 - x = 9
➻ x + 8 = 9
➻ x = 9 - 8
➻ x = 1.
Therefore,
- Present age of Aaron = x = 1years.
- Present age of Ron = x + 5 = 1+5 = 6years.

- Aaron is 5 years younger than ron. four years later, ron will be twice as old as aaron. find their present ages.
- Let the present age of Aaron be x
- Let the present age of Ron be x+5
After 4 years ,
- Age of Aaron = x+4
- Age of Ron = x + 5 + 4 = x + 9
According to the question:-
x + 9 = 2(x + 4)
x + 9 = 2x + 8
9 - 8 = 2x - x
x = 1
Hence,
- Present age of Aaron = 1 year
- Present age of Ron = 1+5 = 6 years
