kriti father is 5times as old as kriti.After 5 years father will be three times as old as kriti.find their present ages.
Answers
Answer:
LET THE AGE OF KIRTI= x
Age of father= 5x
After 5 years,
AGE OF KIRTI = x+5
Age of father = 3(x+5)
So,according to question,
x+5= 3(x+5)
x+5= 3x+15
2x= 10
x=10/2=5
Therefore present age of kirti=5 years
Present age of father= 5x= 5*5=25 years Answer.

Solution:
Let Kriti's Father age be x years.
And Kriti's age be y years.
Now, according to question:
=> x = 5y .........(1)
After 5 years,
=> x + 5 = 3(y + 5)
=> x + 5 = 3y + 15
=> x - 3y = 10 ...........(2)
By using Substitution method we will solve these equations,
=> x = 5y .........(1)
=> x - 3y = 10 ...........(2)
Put the value of x in equation (2), we get
=> x - 3y = 10
=> 5y - 3y = 10
=> 2y = 10
=> y = 10/2
=> y = 5
Now, put the value of y in Equation (1)
=> x = 5y
=> x = 25
Hence,
