Let the present age of Pragati be x years

2 years ago:

  • Pragati age = (x-2) years

After 3 years:

  • Pragati age = (x+3) years

According to the Question

Product of ages = 84

  • (x-2)(x+3)=84
  • x(x+3)-2(x+3)=84
  • x²+3x-2x-6-84=0
  • x²+x-90=0

Splitting the middle term,we get

  • x² +10x-9x-90=0
  • x(x+10)-9(x+10)=0
  • (x+10)(x-9)=0
  • x+10=0 Or x-9 = 0
  • x = -10 Or x = 9

[ Age can't be negative ]

Therefore,

  • Present age of Pragati = 9 years
