Step-by-step explanation:
6 years ago,
let age of Mahesh is equal to X
let age of Bharat be y
- Age of ramesh x/2=y/3
- y=3x/2
so age of Bharat is equal to 3 x divided by 2
Present age of
- Ramesh x/2 +6
- Bharat. 3x/2+6
- Mahesh x+6
sum of Ages of Bharat Ramesh and Mahesh is equal to 60
ATQ. x+6+x/2+6+3x/2+6=60
x+3x/2+x/2+18=60
6x/2=60-18
x=42*2/6=14
Present age of
- Ramesh x/2 +6=14/2+6=13
years
- Bharat. 3x/2+6=14*3/2+6=27years
- Mahesh x+6=20 years
