Question

Ramesh is three years older than Sonia. Six years ago, Ramesh's age was four times sonia's age. Find their ages.

Answer 1

let Sonia's age be s yrs
Ramesh's age will be s+3
six yrs ago
ramesh- (s+3)-6=s-3
Sonia-(s-6)yrs
4(s-6)=s-3
4s-24=s-3
3s=21
s=7 Sonia's age
and hence ramesh's age is 7+3 ie 10
