One year ago Pandit was three times his sister's age. Next year he will be only twice her age..

Answer / siddharth

let sisters present age be X

last year she was x-1, and pandit was 3(x-1)
next year she will be x+1 and pandit 2(x+1)

so equating both

3x-3 + 2 = 2x + 2

x= 3 today.

so last year she was 2 and pandit was 6.

now pandit is 7. 5 years from now he will be 12

One year ago Pandit was three times his sister's age. Next year he will be only twice her age..

Answer / spacelabs

reason
1yr ago --> Sister =x Pandit = 3x
Current --> Sister=x+1 Pandit = 3x+1
1Yr After --> Sister= x+2 Pandit = 3x+2

Since 1Yr after Pandits age is twice to his sister's age
2(x+2) = 3x+2
x=7

Current age of Sister = x+1 = 2 + 1 = 3
Pandit = 3x +1 = 3(2) + 1 = 7

Age of pandit after 5Years = 7 + 5 = 12Years
