Let Sarita's present age be 'X'
Cousin's age = X + 14
After 5 years:
Sarita's age = X + 5
Cousin's age = X + 19
Given: X+5/X+19 = 2/3
3X + 15 = 2X + 38
X = 23
Sarita's present age = 23
Cousin's present age = 37
Cousin's age = X + 14
After 5 years:
Sarita's age = X + 5
Cousin's age = X + 19
Given: X+5/X+19 = 2/3
3X + 15 = 2X + 38
X = 23
Sarita's present age = 23
Cousin's present age = 37
