The present age of Rakshak is twice the present age of Sonal. Five years hence, Sonal’s age will be twice the present age of Arati. Five years ago, the ratio of the ages of Arati and Kiran was 2 : 3 respectively. Kiran’s present age is 20 years. Find Rakshak’s present age.

Answer 1

this was a good question

Answer 2

Rakshak’s present age is 50 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sonal's age be x

We are given that The present age of Rakshak is twice the present age of Sonal.

Rakshak's age = 2x

Sonal's age after 5 years = x+5

Let the present age of aarti be y

Five years hence, Sonal’s age will be twice the present age of Arati. $x+5=2y$ -- A

Aart's age 5 years ago = y-5

Kiran;s present age =20

Kiran's age after 5 years = 20-5=15

Five years ago, the ratio of the ages of Arati and Kiran was 2 : 3 respectively.

$\frac{y-5}{15}=\frac{2}{3}$

$y-5=\frac{2}{3} \times 15$

$y=\frac{2}{3} (15)+5$

y= 15

Substitute the value of y in A

$x+5=2(15)$

$x=2(15)-5$

$x=25$

Rakshak's age = 2(25)=50 years

Hence  Rakshak’s present age is 50 years
