Answer 2

let the present age of reema be x and shalu be y
then According to the question(A.T.Q)
X/y=3/5
5x-3y=0 : 1 ×4
10x-12y=0 : 2

after 6 years age of reema will become (x+6) and age of shalu will become(y+6)
A.T.8(x+6)/(y+6)=2/3
3x+18=2y+12
3x-2y=-6 : 3 ×6
18x-12y = -36 : 4

equation 4-2
-8x = -36
x = 9
on putting x=9 in eq 1.
45 =3y
y =15
So present age of reema is 9 years and age of shalu is 15 years
