Question

Anu is four years older than Sunil. 8 years ago, Anu was three times Sunil's age. find the ages of Sunil and Anu.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the age of Sunil be = x years

Then Anu`s age = x+4 years

eight years ago sunil`s age = (x-8) years

eight years ago anu`s age = (x-8) + 4 years

it is also given that the age of Anu WAS 3 times sunil`s age

⇒3(x - 8)

∴x-8 +4 = 3(x - 8)

⇒x-4 = 3x -24

⇒x -3x = -24 + 4

⇒-2x = -20

⇒x = -20/-2

∴x = 10

∴The age of Sunil = x =10 years

Anu`s age = x + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14 years.
