Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between the ages of Biju and Ani is 3 years.
Either Biju is 3 years older than Ani or Ani is 3 years older than Biju.
However, it is obvious that in both cases, Ani’s father’s age will be 30 years more than that of Cathy’s age.
Let the age of Ani and Biju be x and y years respectively.
Therefore,
age of Ani’s father, Dharam = 2 × x = 2x years and the age of Biju’s sister Cathy y/2 years
By using the information given in the question,
Case (I):
When Ani is older than Biju by 3 years, x − y = 3 ………………….(1)
2x – y/2 = 30
4x – y = 60 ————(2)
Subtracting (1) from (2)
3x = 60 – 3 = 57
x = 57/3 = 19
Therefore, age of Ani = 19 years
And age of Biju = 19 − 3 = 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.
