Question

pranesh is 6 years younger than ganesh.after 8 yars,pranesh age will be three fourth of age of ganesh.ganesh present gae is?​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the present age of ganesh be x.

thus,present age of pranesh =x-6

after 8 years,

ganesh's age =x+8

Pranesh's age =(x-6)+8=x+2

By the given problem:

age of pranesh after 8 years=3/4 of age of ganesh after 8 years

thus,x+2=(x+8)3/4

x+2=(3x/4)+6

x-3x/4=6-2

x/4=4

x=16

thus,value of x =16
