Answers
Let the present age of Rajan be x,
= 38 years
.............................................................................................
STEP 1: Define x:
Let Rajan be x years old now.
His sister will be x - 10 years old
.............................................................................................
STEP 2: Find Rajan's age 8 years ago:
8 years ago, Rajan got married
Rajan = x - 8
His sister = x - 8 - 10 = x - 18
.............................................................................................
STEP 3: Find Rajan's age:
x = 6/5 ( x - 8)
Multiply both sides by 5:
5x = 6(x - 8)
Distribute 6:
5x = 6x - 48
Subtract both sides by 6x:
-x = - 48
x = 48
.............................................................................................
STEP 4: Find sister's age:
Sister = x - 10 = 48 - 10 = 38
.............................................................................................
Answer: Rajan's sister is 38 years old now.
