Answer 1

Answer:

The present age of Pritam = 20 years

The present age of Rohit = 28 years

_____________________________

Let,

• The present age of Pritam = 5x

• The present age of Rohit = 7x

After two years,

• The age of Pritam = 5x + 2

• The age of Rohit = 7x + 2

Also,

The sum of their as will be 52 years.

★ According to the Question :

⟶ (5x + 2) + (7x + 2) = 52

⟶ 5x + 7x + 4 = 52

⟶ 12x = 52 - 4

⟶ 12x = 48

⟶ x = 48/12

⟶ x = 4

_____________________________

The present age of Pritam = 5x

⟶ 5 (4)

⟶ 20

The present age of Rohit = 20 years

______________________________

The present age of Rohit = 7x

⟶ 7 (4)

⟶ 28

The present age of Rohit = 28 years

∴Therefore,

The present age of Pritam and Rohit is 20 years and 28 years respectively.
