Age of Rohit is 5 more than twice of ram age 6years ago , age of ram was 1/8 of Rohit's age . Find their ages

Answer 1

Answer: hope its help to u

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of Rohit is 'r' and age of Pradeep is 'p'.

according to the conditions in the question,

r=2p+5

therefore, r - 2p=5...(1)

p - 6 =(1÷3)(r -6)

therefore. , 3p - 12= r . (2)

by substituting r =3p -12 in the first equation we get,

(3p - 12) -2p = 5

therefore, 3p- 12- 2p = 5

p -12 = 5

p = 17

latest substitute p = 17 in the first equation,

r - 2(17) = 5

therefore, r - 34 =5

r = 34 + 5

r = 39

therefore age of Rohit is 39 and the age of Pradeep is 17.
