the age of two friend Ani and biju differ by 3 year anil father dharma is twice as old as Ani and biju is toys as old old as his sister cathy the age of Cathay and dharma differ by 30 year find the age of Ani and biju
Answers
Answer:
Let the age of Ani and Biju be x and y respectively.
Then according to the question-
x−y=3..........(i)
Dharam is twice the age of Ani
Hence, age of Dharam =2x
Age of Cathy is half the age of Biju
Then age of Cathy = 2y
Then according to the question
2x− 2y=30
⇒4x−y=60......(ii)
Subtracting (ii) from (i)
⇒x−y−4x+y=3−60
⇒−3x=−57
⇒x= −3−57 =19
Substitute the vale of x in (i)
⇒19−y=3
⇒−y=−16
⇒y=16
∴ Age of Ani =19 years and age of Biju =16 years.
Answer:
Let the ages of Ani be A
Let the age of Biju be B
Hence, the age of Dharam = 2 x A = 2A yrs.
The age of Biju sister Ani B/2 yrs
As per the given conditions will solve
Case (i)
When Ani is older than that of Biju
A – B = 3 – – – – – – – – (1) {older by 3 years}
2A−B/2 = 30
4A – B = 60 – – – – – – – – – – – (2)
By subtracting the equations (1) and (2) we get,
3A = 60 – 3 = 57
A = 57/3 = 19
The age of Ani = 19 yrs
The age of Biju is 19 – 3 = 16 yrs.
Case (ii)
When Biju is older than Ani,
B – A = 3 – – – – – – – – – (1) {older by 3 years}
2A − B/2 = 30
4A – B = 60 – – – – – – – – – (2)
Adding the equation (1) and (2) we get,
3A = 63
A = 21
Answer
The age of Ani is 21 yrs
The age of Biju is 21 + 3 = 24 yrs.
