Question

Suman is now 15 years older than Vijay but in 3 more years she will be 8 times as old as Vijay was 3 years ago how old are they now

Answer 1

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER...⬇⬇

==================================

$\underline{SOLUTION}$ ➡

Let,

Vijay's age = x years

•°• Suman's age = ( x + 15 ) years

Before 3 years ago ,

Vijay's age was = ( x - 3 ) years

After 3 years ,

Suman's age will be = { ( x + 15 ) + 3 } years

= ( x + 15 + 3 ) years

= ( x + 18 ) years

A.T.Q.,

( x + 18 ) = 8 ( x - 3 )

=> x + 18 = 8x - 24

=> x - 8x = - 24 - 18

=> - 7x = - 42

=> x = $\frac{- 42 }{ - 7 }$

=> x = 6

•°• Present age of Vijay = x years

= 6 years

And,

Present age of Suman = ( x + 18 ) years

= ( 6 + 18 ) years

= 24 years

$\underline{ANSWER}$ ➡

Suman and Vijay are 24 years and 6 years old now respectively.
