Question

Salil's age is 23 times more than half of Sangram's age . Five years ago the sum of their ages was 55 years. Find their present ages.

Answer 1

Answer:

salil age = 23x years

sangram age = 23x + x years

5 years ago sum of age = 23x + x =55 years

= 24x = 55

= x = 2 years

salil age = 23 ×2 = 46 years

sangram age = 23×2 + 2 =48 years
