Question

RAHIM IS 15 YEARS OLDER THAN VIMAL. 10 YEARS AGO, VIMAL WAS HALF THE AGE OF RAHIM. RAHIM'S PRESENT AGE IS?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the present age of vimal=x

present age of Rahim = (x+15)

10 years ago :-

Vimal's age (x-10)

Rahim's age = (x+15-10) =(x+5)

As per problem :-

Vimal's age = Half of Rahim's present age

(x-10)=(x+15/2) [CROSS MULTIPLICATION]

(2x-20)=(x+15)

x = 35

PRESENT AGE:-

Vimal present age equal to 35 yrs

Rahim present age is equal to 40 yrs

10 YEARS AGO :-

vimal's age = 25 yrs

rahim's age = 30 yrs
