- 10 years
If present age of Rita=x & Rama=y, then
x=2y ---(i) &
x-3=3*(y-3) or x-3y=-6 ---(ii)
On solving (i) & (ii), x=12, y=6 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- Let Rama's present age = x years
Then Rita present age = 2x years
Three years ago
(2x-3) = 3(x-3)
2x - 3 = 3x - 9
or x = 6
Rita age = 2x = 2*6 = 12 year. - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
