Answer 1

⇝ Given :-

• The sum of age of priyanka and priya is 68 years.

• Priyanka is elder than priya by 8 years.

⇝ To Find :-

• Age of Priyanka.

⇝ Solution :-

Let,

• Age of Priyanka = x years

Accordingly,

• Age of Priya = (x - 8) years

❒ According To Question :

$\red{\text{Sum of Ages = 68 years}}$

$:\longmapsto \text x + (\text x - 8) = 68$

$:\longmapsto\text x + \text x - 8 = 68$

$:\longmapsto2\text x = 68 + 8$

$:\longmapsto2\text x = 76$

$:\longmapsto\text x = \cancel\frac{76}{2}$

$\purple{ \Large :\longmapsto  \underline {\boxed{{\bf x = 38} }}}$

Hence,

$\large\underline{\pink{\underline{\frak{\pmb{\text Age \: of \: Pri\text yan\text ka =38\: \text years }}}}}$

Answer 2

• Total ages of years =68 years

Now enter to your question ,

• x+(x-8)=68

• By splitting the terms

• x+x-8=68
• 2x-8=68
• 2x =68+8
• 2x = 76
• x = 76/2
• x =38

Therefore ,

• The ages of Priyanka is 38years.
