Answer:
let the age of ajay be X
let the age of Vijay be Y
Sum of their ages = 30 years
differnce is 20y if ajay is elder than vijay
X + Y = 30 -----1
and IF Y>X
then X-Y = 20 ----2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We can find the age too
from equation 1
X + y = 30
X = 30 - Y
From equation 2
X - Y = 20
(30 - y) - y = 20
30 -2Y = 20
-2y = 20-30
-2y = -10
y = -10/-2
Y = 5
Age of Vijay = 5 years
Age of ajay = 30 - 5 = 25years
