Answer 1

Answer: Let take Rohan's age = x years Rohan’s mother is 26 years older than him Rohan's mother age = x + 26 years
3 years from now Rohan's age = x + 3 Age of Rohan's mother will = x + 26 + 3 = x + 29 The product of their ages (in years) 3 years from now will be 360 so that  (x + 3)(x + 29) = 360 or, x2 + 29x + 3x + 87 = 360 or, x2 + 32x + 87 - 360 = 0 or, x2 + 32x - 273  = 0
