Let money with Rohit be x and money with Ajay be y.
Then according to question,
x + 100 = 2(y - 100)
x + 100 = 2 y - 200
x - 2 y = -300 ................(1)
________________________________________________________
Also,
6(x - 10) = y + 10
6 x - 60 = y + 10
6 x - y = 70 .............(2)
______________________________________________________
From (1) and (2)
(1) × 1 ⇒ x - 2 y = -300
(2) × 2 ⇒ 12 x - 2 y = 140
(-) (+) (-)
______________
-11 x = -440
______________
Then x = 40 and so y = 170
