Answer:
Let the age of Raju's Cousin be x.
Then, Raju's age=(x-19)
AFTER 5 YEARS:
Raju's age=(x-19)+5
=(x-14) years
his cousin's age=(x+5) years
Ratio between their ages in future=2:3.
=> (x-14)/(x+5)=2/3
=>3(x-14)=2(x+5)
=>3x-42=2x+10
=>3x-2x=42+10
=>x=52
.: HIS COUSIN'S AGE=x= 52 YEARS.
.: RAJU'S AGE= (x-19)= (52-19)= 33 YEARS.
