Question

rekha is twice as old as mahesh ten years ago rekha was seven times as old as mahesh find their present ages​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let Mahesh's present age = x years

Then Rekha's present age = 2x years

Ten years ago

(2x - 10) = 7(x - 10)

2x - 10 = 7x -70

-10 + 70 = 7x - 2x

60 = 5x

x = 60/5

x = 12

So,

Mahesh's present age = 12 years

and

Rekha's present age = 2 X 12 = 24 years
