Question

Subhash is 3 years older than his brother Suresh .6 years ago Subhash's age was four times the age of Suresh find their present ages

Answer 1

Solution is attached below

Answer 2

let suresh's age be x
then subhash's age is x + 3
six years ago
                         suresh's age = x - 6
                         subhash's age = x - 3
therefore, x - 3 = 4 * (x - 6)
x - 3 = 4x - 24
-3x = - 21
x = 7
therefore suresh's age is 7 yrs
subhash's age is 10 yrs
