Explanation:
Let Rajan’s present age be x years. Then, his age at the time of marriage = (x – 8) years
x = 6/5 (x - 8)
5x = 6x - 48
x = 48
Rajan’s sister’s age at the time of his marriage = (x – 8) – 10 = (x – 18) = 30 years.
Rajan's sister's present age = (30 + 8) years = 38 years
Let Rajan’s present age be x years. Then, his age at the time of marriage = (x – 8) years
x = 6/5 (x - 8)
5x = 6x - 48
x = 48
Rajan’s sister’s age at the time of his marriage = (x – 8) – 10 = (x – 18) = 30 years.
Rajan's sister's present age = (30 + 8) years = 38 years
