The sum of the current ages of Vishal and Armaan is 70 years. 5 years ago, Vishal was twice as old as Armaan. What is Armaan’s current age?
Let the current age of Arman=x Years and age of Vishal = Y years
As per the question,
$$x+y=70------(i)$$
5 Years ago, age of Vishal =Y-5
5 Years ago, age of Arman= x-5
As per the condition,
$$\Rightarrow 2(x-5)=(y-5)$$
$$\Rightarrow 2x-10=y-5$$
$$\Rightarrow 2x-y=10-5=5$$
$$\Rightarrow 2x-y=5--------------(ii)$$
From the equation (i) and (ii)
$$\Rightarrow 3x=75$$
$$\Rightarrow x=25$$ Years
So, $$y=45$$Years
Hence current age of Arman =25 Years.
