Answer 1

let present age of Vikas be x and present age of deepika be y .

x = y + 3 ---(1)


6 years ago:


age of Vikas = y + 3 - 6 = y - 3

age of deepika = y - 6


since, 6 years ago age of Vikas was 4 times the age of deepika

so then,

y - 3 = 4 × ( y - 6)



y - 3 = 4y - 24


3y = 21 => y = 7 yrs


age of deepika y = 7 yr


age of Vikas = y + 3 = 7 + 3 = 10yrs
