Question

the sum of age of priyanka and priya is 68 years priyanka is elder to priya by 8 years • Then find the age of priyanka​

Answer 1

Answer:

The sum of ages of priyanka and priya = 68years

let,the ages of priyanka be x+8 and priya be x

The ages = x+8+x = 68

= 2x+8 = 68

= 2x = 60

= x = 30

therefore, the age of priyanka = x+8 = 30+8 = 38

Answer 2

Let the age of

=>Priyanka = x years

=>Deepika = y years.

=>Sum of ages of Priyanka & Deepika = 34 years.

=> x + y = 34

=>Priyanka is elder to Deepika by 6 years

=> x - y = 6

Add: (x + y = 34) and (x - y = 6)

We get,

=> 2x = 40

=> x = 40/2

=> x = 20

Now substitute,

=> x + y = 34

=> 20 + y = 34

=> y = 34 - 29

=> y = 14

∴ Priyanka's age = 20 years

Deepika's age = 14 years.
