Let Pragati's present age be ' x ' years.
So,
- her age 2years ago = (x - 2)years
- her after 3 years hence = (x + 3)
GIVEN : Product of pragati age 2 year ago and 3 year hence is 84
Therefore, (x - 2)(x + 3) = 84
=> x² + 3x - 2x - 6 = 84
=> x² + x - 90 = 0
=> x² + 10x - 9x - 90 = 0
=> x(x + 10) - 9(x + 10) = 0
=> (x - 9)(x + 10).
=> x = 9 , x = - 10
But age can't be negatively so, x = 9 is her present age.
