Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

  • Amit's age be x.
  • Armaan's age be y.

CASE 1: Five years ago

3×(y-5)=x-5

3y-15=x-5

3y-x=10 - - - - - - - - - equation 1

CASE 2: Ten years later

2×(y+10)=x+10

2y+20=x+10

x-2y=20-10

x-2y=10 - - - - - - - - - - equation 2

Equation 1 + Equation 2,

3y-x+x-2y=10+10

y=20

y in equation 2

x=10+40

x=50

Therfore,

Amit'age is 50 and Armaan's age is 20.
