Answer 2

Answer:

hey mate here is your answer.....

Step-by-step explanation:

▶️ Let the present age of Nuri be x and Sonu be y.

☑️ According to the given information

• x - 5 = 3 ( y - 5)
• x - 3y = -10. [eq.1]
• x+10 = 2 ( y + 10)
• x - 2y = 10. [eq.2]

➡️ Subtracting eq.1 from eq.2 we get

• y = 20 [eq.3]

➡️ Putting this value in eq.1 we get

• x - 60 = -10
• x = 50

☑️ Hence the age of Nuri is 50 years and age of Sonu is 20 years.
