\pink{\boxed{\blue{\boxed{\purple{\boxed{{\mathfrak{Answer }}}}}}}}

Given -:

Age of Ram is 8 years more than Shyam.

Sum of their ages is 28 years.

To find -:

The age of Ram.

Step-by-step explanation -:

Let the age of Shyam be x.

Then the age of Ram = x + 8. (Since his age is 8 years more than Shyam).

The sum of their ages = 28.

Therefore,

x + (x + 8) = 28

x + x + 8 = 28

2x + 8 = 28

2x = 28 - 8

2x = 20

x =  \frac{20}{2}

x = 10.

Since Shyam is 10 years old,

Therefore Ram's age = 10 + 8 = 18 years.

How to verify?

To check your answer, just see if the age of Ram is 8 years more than Shyam and if the sum of their ages is 28 years.

Given -:

Shyam's age is 10 years.

Ram's age is 18 years.

To find -:

Check whether the answer is correct.

Verification -:

Sum of Ram's age + Shyam's age = 10 + 18 = 28 years.

The sum of their ages is 28 years.

Now, 18 - 10 = 8 years.

Since Ram's age is 8 years more than Shyam's age,

Hence verified ✔️✔️

Hope it helps! :)
