=
3
2
x+5
x−14
=

3x−42=2x+10
3x−2x=42+10
x=52
x−19=52−19=33

Answer
Let,
- Present age of Amit = x years
So,
- Present age of cousin = ( x + 19) years
➜ After 5 years ;
- Age of Amit = ( x + 5 ) years
- Age of cousin = ( x + 24 ) years
➜ According to question,
- ➜ x + 5 / x + 24 = 2 / 3
- ☞ 3 ( x + 5 ) = 2 ( x + 24)
- ☞ 3x + 15 = 2x + 48
- ☞ 3x - 2x = 48 - 15
- ☞ x = 33
➜ So,
- Age of Amit = x = 33 years
- Age of cousin = x + 19 = 33 + 19 = 52 years
➜ Hence,
- Present Age of Amit = 33 years
- Present age of cousin = 52 years
