Answer 1

let Amar's present age = x
and Supriya 's present age = y

a/c to question ,

x - y = 13 ----------(1)


again,

(x - 35) = 2 (y - 35 )

x - 2y = -35 -------------(2)


solve equation (1) and (2)

y = 48 years and x = 61 years

hence, Amar's present age = 61 years
Supriya's present age = 48 years

Answer 2

Answer:

let Amar's present age = x

and Supriya 's present age = y

x - y = 13

again,

(x - 35) = 2 (y - 35 )

x - 2y = -35  

 

y = 48 years and x = 61 years

hence, Amar's present age = 61 years

Supriya's present age = 48 years
