5x-10=24. X=24+10/5 =6.8 Sanjay age =6.8 Dhruv age, X/5 =6.8=34 Dhruv age = 34
Answer:
Sanjay age=16 years; Dhruv age = 40 Years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Sanjay’s present age be ‘x’, then Dhruv age is x+24
10 years back, Sanjay’s age was (x-10) years and Dhruv’s age
was (x+14)
Given: x+14 =5(x-10)
X=16 years
Sanjay age=16 years; Dhruv age = 40 Years
