Question

Rajesh is 24 years older than Mukesh 10 years back Rajesh age was five times the age of Mukesh find their ages

Answer 1

Let the present age of Mukesh = x years
Given that Rajesh is 24 years older than Mukesh
Therefore age of Rajesh = x +24 years

10 years back
Age of Mukesh = x - 10 years
Age of Rajesh = x + 24 -10 = x + 14 years

Given that 10 years back Rajesh age was 5 times of Mukesh
Therefore
x + 14 = 5(x - 10)
x + 14 = 5x - 50
4x = 64
x = 16 years

The age of Mukesh = 16 years
The age of Rajesh = 16+24 = 40 years

Hope my answer helps you.
