#bal

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Raju = x

Age of Raju's cousin = 19 + x

Ages after 5 years

Raju: x + 5

His cousin: 19 + x + 5 = 24 + x

Ratio of their ages = 2:3

Thus, we have

Cross multiplying, we get

3(x + 5) = 2(24 + x)

3x + 15 = 48 + 2x

3x - 2x = 48 - 15

x = 33

Thus, age of Raju is 33 years and age of his cousin is 19 + 33 = 52 years

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:the age of Raju = x

Age of Raju's cousin = 19 + x

Ages after 5 years

Ratio of their ages = 2:3

Thus, we have

Cross multiplying, we get
