as fatima iz five times old so if we consider 30 ,five times ov 30 is 6 then after 6 yearz ,fatima will be 36 and maryam will be 6 plus 6 12 which is three tyms of 36

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the Fatima's age be x and the Marriam's age be y.

According to the first given equation,

=> 5x = y ... (1)

According to the second given equation,

=> 3 (x + 6) = y + 6 ... (2)

Substitute eq (1) in eq (2)

=> 3 (x + 6) = 5x + 6

» 3x + 18 = 5x + 6

» 2x = 12

» x = 6

Substitute in eq (1)

» y = 30

Hence, Marriam's age is 30 years.
