Answer:
Let Deepika's age be x and Vikas’s age be y.
Since Vikas is 3 years older than Deepika
Therefore, Vikas's age y = x + 3 ……(1)
6 years ago
Vikas’s age = x + 3 – 6
= x – 3
Deepika’s age = x – 6
Vikas’s age was 4 times Deepika’s age
Therefore, Vikas’s age
x – 3 = 4 (x – 6)
x – 3 = 4x – 24
– 3 + 24 = 4x – x
21 = 3x
x = 7
From (1)
y = x + 3
y = 7 + 3
y = 10
Therefore, Deepika’s age is 7 years and Vikas’s age is 10 years.
