Question

VVU :
. Today is Lakshmi's birthday. She turned
24. Lakshmi is twice as old as Ramu was
when Lakshmi was as old as Ramu now.
How old is Ramu now?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:laxmi is twice the age of ramu

Then,

Laxmi= 2rammu age

Let take ramu age be x

Then,

Laxmi=2x

Laxmi is 24 now,

24=2x

24/2=x

12=x

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let present age of Lakshmi be x

Let present age of Ramu be y

So,

According to the question.. Some years ago(let it be a years)

x=(y-a) ×2

but given that Ramu's age was equal to Lakshmi when she was of the present age of Ramu , that is, y

so,

x=2× (y-a)

x=2× (x-a)

x=2× y

Therefore, Present age of Ramu(y)= x/2

Given that, x=24

y=24/2

=12 years

Yeah it's complicated, but this is the correct solution.

Hope it helps !!
