Question

Ravi is now 6 years older than Neeta. Three years ago, he was twice as old as she was then. Find their present ages

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Age of Neeta now=x

Age of Ravi now=x+6

Age of Neeta three years ago = x-3 Age of Ravi three years ago = (x+6)-3

According to the question: 2(x-3) = x+6-3

2x-6 = x+3

2x-x = 3+6 :. x=9

Thus age of Neeta is 9 years old and age of Ravi is (9+6)=15 years old.

Hope this helped. this is an original answer. Please mark as the brainliest answer:))

Answer 2

Let Ravi Present Age Be x And Neeta Present Age Be y

x=y+6 -First

x-y=6 From First

Three Years Ago There Age

X-3 And Y-3

X-3=2(Y-3)

X-3=2Y-6

X-2y=-3

Now By Elimination Method

Subtract 1 From 2

X-Y=6

X-2Y=-3

Y=9 - Third

Put Third In First X-9=6

X=15

Hence Proved
