Question
After 6 years, the sum of the ages of 'Karan' and 'Amit' will be 70 years. Fifteen years ago, Karan was 12 years younger than Amit. What will be Amit’s age 6 years from now?
Solution
ATQ,
Let present ages be:
Karan = p
Amit = q
(p + 6) + (q + 6) = 70
⇒ p + q = 58 ——— (i)
p - 15 = q - 15 - 12
⇒ p = q - 12 ——— (ii)
(q - 12) + q = 58
2q = 70
q = 35
Amit's age in 6 years = 35 + 6 = 41 years
