The present age of rahim is 22 years and the present age of ramu is 10 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Age of Ramu 4 years ago = x
Age of Rahim 4 years ago = 3x
After two years = 6 years (Because 4 years is in past)
Age of Ramu = x + 6
Age of Rahim = 3x + 6
Present ages = x + 4 & 3x + 4
3x + 6 = 2(x + 6)
3x + 6 = 2x + 12
3x - 2x = 12 - 6
x = 6
Age of Ramu = x + 4
Age of Ramu = 6 + 4
Age of Ramu = 10 years
Age of Rahim = 3x + 4
Age of Rahim = 3(6) + 4
Age of Rahim = 18 + 4
Age of Rahim = 22 years
