Question

Gargi'sage was double that of Jyothi 2years ago.If Gargi was 2years older to Jyothi then,try to guess how old she is today.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let Jyoti's age be x

Therefore it is mentioned that gargi was 2 times jyothis age which is 2x

It is also told gargi is 2 years older than Jyoti's age which is x+2.

Hence

2x=x+2

2x-x=2

X=2

Therefore Jyoti's age is 2 years

And Gargis age is 2*2=4years.

Answer 2

Let jyoti's age be x 2 yrs ago
Then gargi's age =2x
Now according to the question
After two years 2x +2 =x +2+2
2x - x =4-2
X = 2
Since jyotis age is 2yrs
Therefore gargis age will be 2+2=4yrs
