Question

Riya is younger than Meghna by 7 years. The sum of their ages is 53 years. What is Meghna's age?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the present age of Riya is x

Then the Meghna present age is x+7

According to question

x+x+7 = 53

2x + 7 = 53

2x= 53-7

2x= 46

x= 46 ÷ 2

x =23

Meghana age 23+7 = 30 years

Riya age = 23 years
