Question

Ramesh is thrice as old as suresh. Two years hence, ramesh will be twice as old as suresh. Find the ramesh's present age (in years)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Suresh be x and present age of Ramesh be 3x

After 2 years,

Age of Suresh = x+2

Age of Ramesh = 3x+2

ATQ

3x+2 = 2(x+2)

3x+2 = 2x+4

Hence, X = 2

Therefore,

Ramesh's present age = 3x = 6 years
