Answer 1

I think 108 years is the age of Anup.

Answer 2

Answer:

Anup's father = 65

Anup=35

Anuj=13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Anup be x years

So age of Anup’s father will be (100 – x) years

The age of Anuj is (100-x)/5 years

So, When Anup is as old as his father after (100 – 2x) years,

Then Anuj’s age = present age of his father (Anup) + 8

Present age of Anuj + 100 – 2x = Present age of Anup + 8

(100 – x)/5 + (100 – 2x) = x + 8

(100-x)/5 – 3x = 8 – 100

(100 – x – 15x)/5 = -92

By cross-multiplying we get,

100 – 16x = -460

-16x = -460 – 100

-16x = -560

x = -560/-16

= 35
