Question

Tanu is four times as old as Manu. Five years ago, Tanu was seven times as old as manu was then. Find their present ages?

Answer 1

Answer:

Tanu is 32 years old and manu is 8 yrs

Answer 2

Answer:

age of tanu is 40years & age of manu of 10 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

let age of manu = m & age of tanu = t

now

t = 4m -------- (1)

five years ago

(t-5)=7(m-5) -------- (2)

from (1) & (2)

4m-5 = 7m - 35

3m = 30

m = 10

from(1)

t = 40
