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.

\rule{110}2
