Question

sum of the present age of Naman and ajit 31 Namans age 3 years ago was4 times the age of ajit

Answer 1

Let Naman's Age = x and Ajit's Age = y

x + y = 31

Naman's age 3 years ago = x - 3

Ajit's Age 3 years ago = y - 3

Therefore,

x - 3 = 4( y - 3)

x - 3 = 4y - 12

x = 4y - 9

4y = x - 9

y = (x - 9)/4

Thus,

x + (x - 9)/4 = 31

(5x - 9)/4 = 31

5x - 9 = 124

5x = 133

x = 26.6

Naman's Age = 26.6 Years

Ajit's Age = 4.4 Years
