Answer 2

Answer:

Reema is 20 years old and Varun is 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Reema is = twice old as Varun

Fave years ago, Reema was 5 times Varun's age

To find :

Their present ages

Solution :

Let their present ages be -

• Varun as y
• Reema as 2y

Ages 5 years ago -

• Varun = y - 5
• Reema = 2y - 5

★ 2y - 5 = 3(y - 5)

⇒ 2y - 5 = 3y - 15

⇒ 2y - 3y = - 15 + 5

⇒ –y = –10

⇒ y = 10

Varun's present age = 10 years

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

★ Reema's present age -

⇒ 2(10)

⇒ 20

Reema's present age = 20 years

Therefore, Reema is 20 years old and Varun is 10 years.
