Read Solution (Total 8)
-
- At present, Sita is 40 years old.
After 12 years, Sita will be 52 years old.
If R and S are their present ages, then
R=S+10
and
R+10= 2*(S-10)
solving these eqns, we get
R=50 and S=40 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(47) No(31)
- Let the age of Raju be 'x' years and Sita be 'y' years
1st equation will be => x-10=y
2nd equation will be => x+10=2(y-10)
By SOlving two equation Raju age=30 years
Sita Age=20 years
Sita age after 12 years :32 years Ans - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(31) No(25)
- @ARUN,ASHISH PANDEY & RAMYACHITRA :
after solving these 2 equ
i.e. R=S+10 & R+10=2*(S-10)
R=32yrs & S=40yrs
Sita's age after 12yrs will be 40+12= 52yrs - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(29) No(5)
- let raju's age = R, sita's age = S
eq1, R = 10 + S
eq2, R+10 = 2(10 + S - 10) = 2S
thus 2S-10 = 10 + S which gives S =20
thus aftr 12 yrs she will be 20 + 12 = 32 yrs - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(19) No(18)
- let sita age =x
then raju age=x+10
acc to condition raju age+10 (since 10 yrs aftr)=2(sita age bfre 10 yrs )
ie, x+10+10=2(x)
=> x=20
so sita age aftr 12 yrs would be 20+12=32 yrs - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(16)

after 12 year sita will be 40+12=52 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(3)
- raju's present age is 10+x
after 10 years raju's age is 2(x-10)
10+x = 2(10-x)=30 years
after 12 years sita's age is 30+2 = 32 years - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(5)
- Sita's age=x
so,raju's age =x+10
by given condition,
x+10+10=2(x+10-10)
so x=20
sita's age after 12 yrs=20+12=32yrs - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
