Question

Kiran is 24 years older than Rakesh.10 years back Kiran's age was five times the age of Rakesh. find their ages

Answer 1

Let , kirans present age=x yrs
Rakeshs present age=y yrs
ATQ
x=24+y
Which gives, x-y=24------------------eq 1
Before 10yrs,kirans age=x-10 yrs
Rakeshs age=y-10 yrs
ATQ
x-10=5(y-10)
Which gives, x-10=5y-50
Which thus gives, x-5y= -40-------------------eq 2
Now, subtracting eq1 and eq2
x-y-x+5y=24+40
Which gives, 4y=64
y=16
Putting value of y in eq1
x-16=24
x=40
Therefore, kirans present age is 40yrs
Rakeshs present age is 16yrs
