Kim is ten years older than babu next year she will be twice as old as him how old they are now
Answers
Let the age of babu be x years
Age of kim = x+10 years
In one years, age of kim = x+11
age of babu = x+1
Age of kim is twice that of babu
x+11 = 2(x+1)
x+11=2x+2
x = 9
Present age of babu = 9 years
Present age of kim = 19 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of babu be x years
Therefore, age of Kim will be = x + 10 years
After One year
Babu's age = x + 1
Kim's age = x + 11
According to Question,
Age of Kim will be twice that of babu after a year
i.e.,
x + 11 = 2 (x+1)
x + 11 = 2x + 2
x = 9
Therefore, the present ages are-
Age of Kim = x + 10
9 + 10
19 years
Age of babu= x = 9 years
After 10 years-
Age of Kim = x + 11
9 + 11
20 years
Age of babu = x + 1
10 years
