Answer 1

Answer:

8, 24 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of Sita = x years.

Then, Age of Reena = 32 - x years

Also, Age of reena is 3 times age of sita.

Thus,

$(32 - x) = 3x\\\\\\\implies 32 - x - 3x = 0\\\\\\\implies - 4x = - 32\\\\\\\implies x = 8 \: years$

Hence, age of Sita = 8 years and of reena = 32-8 = 24 years.

Also, Reena's age os 3 times that of sita as 8*3 = 24.
