Answer 1

The answer for your question is 10 years,i.e.x=10 years.

Answer 2

Given: Mrudhula gave birth to twins when she was twenty years old. After x years, the sum of the ages of Mrudhula and her twin children is 50 years.

To find: Value of x

Solution: Age of Mrudhula when she gave birth to the twins= 20 years

After x years, Mrudhula's age = 20+x

The twins' age after x years = x

Since the age of any twins are same, therefore the sum of the age of the twins after x years

= x + x

= 2x

Now, it is given that after x years, the sum of the ages of Mrudhula and her twin children is 50 years.

Therefore,

Mrudhula's age + Sum of the twins' age = 50

=> 20+x + 2x = 50

=> 3x = 50-20

=> 3x = 30

=> x = 30/3

=> x = 10

Therefore, the value of x is equal to 10.
