and Anup is 42

charu is 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given: Anup is 2 years older than Brian and Brian is thrice as old as a Charu. The sum of the ages of Anup, Brian, and Charu is 37 years.

Let Charu's age be $x$ years, Brian age is $3x$ years and Anup's age is $3x+2$ years.

According to the given statement,

$x+3x+3x+2=37\\7x+2=37\\7x=35\\x=\frac{35}{7}$

$x=5$

Hence, Brian's age $=3\times 5$

Brian's age is 15 years old.
