Question

the average age of ram and hari is 15 years and that hari and mohan is 14 years. if ram is 17 years old, find the age of hari and mohan

Answer 1

Let, the age of Hari be x.

the age of Ram be y.

the age of Mohan be z .

according to the problem,

x+y=10+(x+z),

z=x+y-10-x,

z=y-10.

hence Mohan is 10 years younger than ram.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average age of Ram and Hari is 15 years.

Average = age of Ram and Hari/2

               = 15*2

               =30

Here,

        total age of Hari and Mohan is 14*2=28

      The age of Ram is 17 years.

Let,

     ages of Hari be x and ages of Mohan be y

  Now,

          x+17=30

     or,x=30-17

         x = 13

     

   Y+13=28

   y=28-13

   y=15

So, the ages of Hari and Mohan is 13 and 15 respectively.
