let Seema's age be x yrs
so Sudesh's age is 2x yrs
therefore,
4(x-6) = (2x+4)
4x-24 = 2x+4
2x-24 = 4
2x = 28
x = 14
therefore Seema is 14 yrs old and Sudesh is 28.
so, 3 yrs ago Seema was 11 and Sudesh 25.
so Sudesh's age is 2x yrs
therefore,
4(x-6) = (2x+4)
4x-24 = 2x+4
2x-24 = 4
2x = 28
x = 14
therefore Seema is 14 yrs old and Sudesh is 28.
so, 3 yrs ago Seema was 11 and Sudesh 25.
