Question= khsayap is 21 year old and kisunk is fifteen year old after how many year will khsayab we twice as old as kisunk
Solution ⬇️
Khsayap= 21 years now, while Kisunk= (21–15) = 6 years now.
Khsayap: Kisunk= 21 : 6
(Khsayap+x) : (Kisunk + x) = 2 :1
(21+x) : (6+ x) = 2 :1
1(21+x) = 2(6+x), or
21 + x = 12 + 2x, or
x = 9.
So in 9 years from now, the ages of Khsayap : Kisunk will be in the ratio of 2:1.
