Let Rohan's age be x
Therefore Rohan's mom's age is x+26
Now Roahn age after 3 yrs x+3 and his mothers age after three years x+29
Now we know (x+3)(x+29) = 360
x²+3x+29x+87 = 360
x²+32x+87=360
x²+32x=360-87
= 273 x(x+32)=273
After solving we get x=7 So, age of Rohan = 7 yrs
The solution for how to get x is Take one factor of the equation x²+32x-273 = 0 First factorise
Factors are x-7 and x+32 .
So take any one factor and solve it and you will get two solutions of the quadratic equation
X-7.
x=7 And x+32
x=-32 Now put your logic age can't be in minus so x=7 is correct solution for this
