Answer 1

hiii!!! here's ur answer...

ATQ, Aditya is 3 yrs younger than his sister shamali.

let the present of his sis shamali be x.

therefore his present age x - 3.

sum of their ages is given 27 yrs

==> x + x - 3 = 27 yrs

==> 2x - 3 = 27 yrs

==> 2x = 27 + 3

==> 2x = 30

==> x = 30/2

==> x = 15

hence, present age of shamali = x = 15 yrs

present age of Aditya = x - 3 = 15 - 3 = 12 yrs

hope this helps..!!

Answer 2

Hey there, your answer is ready;

Let Shamali's age = x yrs

Then, Aditya's age = (x - 3) yrs

ATQ (According to question);

x + (x - 3) = 27

=> 2x - 3 = 27

=> 2x = 27 + 3

=> 2x = 30

=> x = 30/2

= 15 yrs

So, according to solution;

Shamali's age = x yrs = 15 yrs

Aditya's age = (x - 3) yrs = 15 - 3 = 12 yrs

CHECK:-

15 + 12 = 27
