Question

Sahil is 9 years older than samir. After 4 years Sahil's age will be twice the age of Samir . Find their present ages​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\\ sahil \: = 9 + samir \\ \\ sahil \: + 4 = 2(samir + 4)$

Answer 2

Answer:

Samir's age is 5 years;

Sahil's age is 14 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let samir's age be x years.

According to question,

Samir = x

Sahil = (x+9)

After 4 years,

Samir = (x+4)

Sahil = (x+9)+4

Value of x = 2(x+4) = (x+9+4)

= 2x + 8 = x + 13

= 2x - x = 13 - 8

= x = 5

Samir's age = 5 years

Sahil's age = (5+9) = 14 years

Hope this helps.
