Answer:
Present age of Neeta is 9 years and present is Ravi is 15 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of Neeta be a years. As given in the question, Ravi is 6 years older than Neeta.
It means : Age of Ravi is ( a + 6 ) years, if age of Neeta is a years.
Given,
Three year ago, he was twice as old as than Neeta.
3 year ago :
- Age of Ravi = Present age - 3 year = ( a + 6 ) year - 3 year = ( a + 6 - 3 ) year = ( a + 3 ) year
- Age of Neeta = Present age - 3 year = a year - 3 year= ( a - 3 ) year
= > Age of Ravi is twice the age of Neeta
= > Age of Ravi = twice of Neeta's age
= > ( a + 3 ) year = 2( a - 3 ) year
= > a + 3 = 2( a - 3 )
= > a + 3 = 2a - 6
= > 3 + 6 = 2a - a
= > 9 = a
Hence the present age of
- Neeta is 9 years.
- Ravi is ( a + 6 ) year i.e. ( 9 + 6 ) year i.e. 15 year
