Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
Meera is thrice as old as komal three years ago her age was five times that komal age.
To find :-
Find their present ages ?
Solution :-
Let the present age of Komal be X years
The present age of Meera
= Thrice the komal age.
= 3X years
3 years ago the age of Komal = (X-3) years
3 years ago the age of Meera = (3X-3) years
According to the given problem
Meera is five times the age of komal three years ago
=> Meera's age = 5×Komal's age
=> 3X-3 = 5(X-3)
=> 3X-3 = 5X-15
=> 3X-5X = -15+3
=> -2X = -12
=> 2X = 12
=> X = 12/2
=> X = 6
The present age of Komal = 6 years
The present age of Meera = 3×6 = 18 years
Answer:-
The present age of Komal = 6 years
The present age of Meera = 18 years

The present age of Komal = 6 years
The present age of Meera = 18 years

Meera's age = 15 years
