• Four years later Thavan will be twice as old as jisha

{ \huge{ \underline{ \underline{ \sf{ \green{To \: find :}}}}}}

• What are the present age of Jisha and Thavan?

{ \huge{ \underline{ \underline{ \sf{ \green{SoluTion : }}}}}}

Let the age of Jisha be x years.

Given that,

Jisha is 5 years younger than Thavan.

Then,

Thavan age will be = x - 5

Again, it’s given that

Four years later, Thavan will be twice as old as Jisha.

Four years later,

Age of Jisha = x + 4

Age of Thavan = x - 1

A.T.Q :-

⟼ x + 4 = 2(x - 5 + 4)

⟼ x + 4 = 2(x - 1)

⟼ x + 4 = 2x - 2

⟼ 4 + 2 = 2x - x

⟼ x = 6

Hence,

Age of Jisha is = 6 years

Age of Thavan is = (x -5)= 1 year
