Question

appu is 10 years older than kichu. after 5 years appu's age would be double that of kichu. what are their ages now?​

Answer 1

Answer:

15 years and 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let appu's age be x

and kichu's age be y

x=10+y...............(1)

After 5 Years, appu's age = x+5

                       kichu's age= y+5

x+5=2(y+5)

x+5=2y + 10

x-2y=10-5

x-2y=5.............(2)

Substitute eqn 1 in 2

10+y-2y=5

10-y=5

y=10-5

y=5

Substitute y=5 in eqn 1

x=10+5

x=15

Therefore, appu's age=x= 15 years

                  kichu's age=y=5 years
