let's take the age of Manish as =x

then, Amit will be =2x

they told difference between them is 13

if we write this in an equation we get,

2x-x=9

x=9

Manish is 13

Amit is 2*9.

Amit is 18.

Solution:

let amit's age be x

and Manish's age be y

From first condition,

x = 2y

by second condition,

x - y = 9

Therefore by putting x=2y in second equation,

(2y) - y = 9 \\ y = 9 \\ x = 2y = 2(9) = 18

° Amit's age is 9 years and Manish's age is 18 years
