Step-by-step explanation:
Given Ritu is 6 years older than Prakash. Eight years ago, Ritu was three times Prakash's age. Find the ages of Ritu and Prakash
- Let the age of Prakash be be r
- So age of Ritu will be r + 6
- Now age of Prakash 8 years ago was r – 6
- So Ritu’s age 8 years ago will be (r + 6) – 8
- = r – 2
- According to the question
- Ritu was three times Prakash’s age 8 years ago, so we have
- So r – 2 = 3 (r – 6)
- r – 2 = 3r – 18
- r – 3r = 2 – 18
- So – 2r = - 16
- Or r = 16 / 2
- r = 8
- So age of Ritu will be r + 6 = 8 + 6 = 14 years
- Age of Prakash will be r = 8 years
