Answer 1

Answer:

32 years old Shree after 12 years

Answer 2

Answer:

Age of Shree after twelve years $=32$ years .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the relation between the ages of Rajat and Shree.

We are asked to calculate the age of Shree after twelve years.

So first find the present ages of Rajat and Shree.

It is said that Rajat is ten older than Shree.

Mathematically writing,

Let the age of Shree $=x$

then the age of Rajat $=x+10$

Ten years from now, Rajat would be twice as old as Shree was ten years ago.

Ten years from now age of Shree $=x+10$ ,

age of Rajat $=x+10+10=x+20$ , and which is twice the age of Shree ten years ago,

that is

                $x+20=2x\\\\x=20$

Present age of Shree $=20$ years

therefore present age of Rajat $=30$ years.

Ten years from now age of Rajat $=40$ years , which was twice of Shree's present age. Information are verified.

Hence age of Shree after twelve years $=20+12=32$ years.

Hence the answer.
