let the age of Raju be x ..
then the age of his cousin = x + 19
Now, after 5 years..
Raju's age = x + 5
Cousin's age = x + 19 + 5 = x + 24
So, According to Question..
( x + 5 ) 3 = ( x + 24 ) 2
=> 3x + 15 = 2x + 48
=> 3x - 2x = 48 - 15
=> x = 33
Therefore, Raju's age = 33
His cousin's age = 33 + 19 = 52
then the age of his cousin = x + 19
Now, after 5 years..
Raju's age = x + 5
Cousin's age = x + 19 + 5 = x + 24
So, According to Question..
( x + 5 ) 3 = ( x + 24 ) 2
=> 3x + 15 = 2x + 48
=> 3x - 2x = 48 - 15
=> x = 33
Therefore, Raju's age = 33
His cousin's age = 33 + 19 = 52
