Question

Sunitha is 24 years older than her daughter kavitha. 6 years ago Sunitha was thrice as old as Kavitha. Find their present ages

Answer 1

let present age of kavitha be x years
so present age of sunitha is (x+24) years
6 years ago,
age of kavitha was (x_6) years
age of sunitha was (x+18) years
so, 3 (x_6)=x+18
=>2x=36
=>x=18
hence present age of kavitha is 18 years and that of sunitha is 42 years...
