Answer 1

Greetings mate,
Here be yer' answer
___________________________________________________

Let 
The age of Rakesh = x
The age of Kiran     = 24 + x

10 years back:
Age of Rakesh = x - 10
Age of Kiran     = 24 + x -10

⇒ x + 24 + x = 5 [ 14 + x ] 
⇒ 2x + 24     = 70 + 5x
⇒ 3x = 46
⇒ x = 18

∴ The age of Rakesh = 18
    The age of Kiran    = 42

Let

The age of Rakesh = x

The age of Kiran = 24 + x

10 years back:

Age of Rakesh = x - 10

Age of Kiran = 24 + x -10

⇒ x + 24 + x = 5 [ 14 + x ]

⇒ 2x + 24 = 70 + 5x

⇒ 3x = 46

⇒ x = 18

∴ The age of Rakesh = 18

The age of Kiran = 42
