Your question is incomplete. The complete question is :-

Ajay's age is younger than that of Vijay by 5 years. The sum of their ages is 25 years. What is Ajay's present age?


Solution :-

Let the age of Vijay be x years

So, Ajay's age will be x - 5 years

The sum of their ages is 25 years


According to the given condition

x + x - 5 = 25

☛ 2x - 5 = 25

☛ 2x = 25 + 5

☛ 2x = 30

∴ x = 15


∴ Present age of Vijay ☛ x years

☛ 15 years


∴ Present age of Ajay ☛ x - 5 years

☛ 15 - 5

\boxed{\boxed{\tt{10\:years}}}

Your Question :

Ajay's age is younger than that of Vijay by 5 years. The sum of their ages is 25 years. Then what is Ajay's present age?

Answer :

Let the age of Vijay be x years.

So, Ajay's age = x - 5 years

As per your question,

Sum of their ages is 25 years

Now,

From the given condition,

x + x - 5 = 25

Taking (-5) to the R.H.S,

x + x = 25 + 5

2x = 30

x = 15

So, The age of Vijay is 15 years.

Ajay's age = x + 5

= 15 + 5

= 20 years.

Thus,

Age of Vijay = 15 yrs

Age of Ajay = 20 yrs.
