Answer 1

Answer:

Khalid's present age=12years

Answer 2

Answer:

Let Khalid's age be 2x/3

Let Shahlid's age be x

After 12 yrs Khalid's age is 12+2x/3

After 12 yrs Shahlid's age is 12+x

12+x+2x/3+12 = 54

24+5x/3 = 54

5x/3 = 30

5x = 90

x = 18

therefore, Shahlid's present age is x = 18

Khalid's present age is 2x/3 = 12
