years , rohit will be twicw as old as his son. what are
their present ages?(**** please give explanaion***)

Answer Posted / vignesh1988i

let us assume the present ages be x (rohit) & y (son).

given that , (x-8)=4(y-8)
solving this we will get : x-4y=-24 ------> 1
given that , (x+8)=2(y+8)
solving that we will get : x-2y=8 ------> 2
solving 1&2 we will get :

x=40 & y=16.....


thank u
