Question

Five years ago, raju was three times as old as ramesh. 10 years later , raju would be twice as old as ramesh . How old are they now? Solve

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of raju and ramesh be x and y

a.c.p

x - 5 = 3(y - 5)

x - 5 = 3y - 15

x - 3y - 10 = 0

x + 10 = 2(y + 10)

x + 10 = 2y + 20

x = 2y + 10

2y + 10 - 3y + 10 = 0

-y = - 20

y = 20

x = 2(20) + 10

x = 50

THEREFORE AGE OF RAJU IS 50YEARS AND AGE OF RAMESH IS 20 YEARS

VERIFICATION

x - 5 = 3(y - 5)

50 - 5 = 3(20 - 5)

45 = 45
