let the present age of sonu = y
A.T.Q
five years ago
x - 5 = 3 ( y - 5 )
x - 5 = 3y - 15
x - 3y = - 15 + 5
x - 3y = - 10 ----------(i)
ten years later
x + 10 = 2 ( y + 10 )
x + 10 = 2y + 20
x - 2y = 20 - 10
x - 2y = 10 ---------(ii)
By (i) and (ii) eq.
x - 3y = - 10
x - 2y = 10
___________
0 - y = - 20
y = 20
___________
put the value of y in eq. (i)
x - 3y = - 10
x - 3 ( 20 ) = - 10
x = - 10 + 60
x = 50
Answer =
present age of nuri = 50
present age of sonu = 20
