The present age of Ram's mother
is three
times age of Ram 10
years hence, age of mother will
be
a twice the age of Ram at
that time . find their present
age.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let Ram’s present age be R years and his mother’s present age be M years.

Thus M = 3R —————— (1)

Also (M + 10) = 2(R + 10)

Thus M + 10 = 2R + 20

Thus M = 2R + 20 - 10

Thus M = 2R + 10 ————— (2)

Putting equation (1) in equation (2)

3R = 2R + 10

Thus 3R - 2R = 10

Thus R = 10 years

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let rama's age be x

mother age be 3x

according to the question

3x + 10 = 2(x + 10)

3x + 10 = 2x + 20

3x - 2x = 20 - 10

x = 10

rama's age = 10 years

mother's age = 30 years
