let Raj age = X
Ram age = 3x
5 years later
Raj age = X + 5
Ram age = 3x + 5
According to the given question
3x + 5 = 2.5(X+5)
3x + 5 = 2.5x + 12.5
3x - 2.5x = 12.5 - 5
0.5 x = 7.5
X = 7.5/0.5
X = 15.
Hence : Raj age X = 15 years
Ram age 3x = 3(15) = 45 years.
Ram age = 3x
5 years later
Raj age = X + 5
Ram age = 3x + 5
According to the given question
3x + 5 = 2.5(X+5)
3x + 5 = 2.5x + 12.5
3x - 2.5x = 12.5 - 5
0.5 x = 7.5
X = 7.5/0.5
X = 15.
Hence : Raj age X = 15 years
Ram age 3x = 3(15) = 45 years.
