Let the age of Deepika be x yrs
then the age of Vikas = x + 3 yrs
Six years ago the age of Deepika = x - 6
and vikas age = x + 3 - 6 = x - 3
given that six years ago the age of Vikas = 4 * Deepikas`s age
⇒4*(x - 6)
⇒4x - 24
∴4x - 24 = x - 3
⇒3x = -3 + 24
⇒3x = 21
⇒x = 21/3
∴x = 7
∴The age of Deepika = x =7 years
then the age of Vikas = 7 + 3 = 10 years.
then the age of Vikas = x + 3 yrs
Six years ago the age of Deepika = x - 6
and vikas age = x + 3 - 6 = x - 3
given that six years ago the age of Vikas = 4 * Deepikas`s age
⇒4*(x - 6)
⇒4x - 24
∴4x - 24 = x - 3
⇒3x = -3 + 24
⇒3x = 21
⇒x = 21/3
∴x = 7
∴The age of Deepika = x =7 years
then the age of Vikas = 7 + 3 = 10 years.
