Question

Five years ago, Deepika was twice as old as Kanchan. Five years later, Deepika's age will be 5 more than Kanchan's age. Find their present ages.

Answer 1

let k = x and d= 2x
five years ago means -5
k=x-5
d=2x-5
five years later d=5(x-5)+5
k=2x-5+5
now equate them
d=k
5x-25+5=2x
5x-20=2x
3x=20
x= 20/3
x=6.5 years
* kanchan present age=6 and half years
deepikas present age= 13.5.
13 and half years
