Given : Ruchi is 4 years older than monica,and sum of their ages is 20
To find : Ages of Ruchi & Monika
Solution:
Let say age of monika = M years
Ruchi is 4 years older than monika
=> ruchi age = M + 4 Years
Sum of ages of ruchi & monika
= M + M + 4
= 2M + 4 Years
Sum of thir ages is given as 20 Years
Equating
2M + 4 = 20
=> 2M = 16
=> M = 8
Monika age = 8 years
Ruchi age = 8 + 4 = 12 Years
Monika age = 8 Years Ruchi age = 12 years
