Step-by-step explanation:
Determine raju present age be x . so his cousin age is x+19
after 5 years there age will be in ratio 2:3 so now Express ratio in simple form =2/3
so now ACCORDING TO QUESTION
x+19/x =2/3 (cross multiplication)
3×(x+19) = 2×x
3x + 57 = 2x
( transport 2x to LHS)
so 3x-2x =57
x = 57
so raju = x = 57 and his cousin = x +19 =57+19 = 76
