Answer Posted / karan_intouch
let current age be H and W
H + W = 91
also the let the Y years before Husband is same age as
Wife's current age:
H - Y = W
Also, husband is currently twice the age of wife's age Y
years ago.
H = 2 ( W - Y)
Solving FOR Y FIRST:
2W - 2Y = H
W - Y = H
=================
W=3Y
Now, H =2(2Y)=4Y
7Y= 91
so, Y =91/7=13
so W=39 and H=52
