Answer 1

Answer:

28 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

28 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ravi's age be R and Sachin's age be S.

According to the question,

R = S - 5   ...(i)

5 years ago, Ravi's age = R - 5  

According to the question,

R - 5 = 18

⇒ R = 18 + 5

⇒ R = 23 years

Using R = 23 in (i)

23 = S - 5

⇒ S = 23 + 5

⇒ S = 28 years.
