Answer 2

Let their present ages be = x
Shyam present age = x (1 )
Ram present age = x+2 (2)
as he is 2 years older than shyam
The sum of their present ages = 36
The sum of (1 ) & (2)
x + x + 2 = 36 years
2x + 2 = 36
2x = 36 - 2
2x = 34
x = 34/2
x = 17
The present age of
Shyam = 17
Ram = 17 + 2 = 19
