Answer 1

Answer:

Renu age = 18 years

Younger sister = 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of younger sister be 'x' years

than, Present age of Renu will be 'x+6' years

After 10 years their ages will be

Younger sister = x+10

Renu = x+6+10

According to the question:

x+10+x+6+10=50 years

2x+26=50 years

2x= 50-26 years

2x = 24 years

x = 12 years

Present age of younger sister = x = 12 years

Present age of Renu = x+6 = 12+6 = 18 years.
