Question

Arjun is twice as old as shriya.Five years ago his was three times Shriya's age.Find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

Arjun's Age=4 years ,Shreya's Age=2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

• let the age of shreya be =x

• So Age of Arjun= 2x              

=>   3(2x-5)=x-5

=>   6x-15=x-5                                  Now, x = Shreya's Age = 2 Years

=>   6x-x=15-5                                  Now 2x= Arjun's Age = 2(2)=4 Years

=>   5x=10

=>   x=10/5

=>   x=2
