And we have a younger sister who is 6 years younger than Rohan:
R

In 10 years, the sum of their ages will be 50. So in 10 years Rohan will be:
R
+
10
and her brother will be
R
−
6
+
10
and the two added together will be 50:
(
R
+
10
)

(
R
−
6
+
10
)
=
50
How old are they now?
(
R
+
10
)

(
R
−
6
+
10
)
=
