Ammu is 7 years younger than Divya. If 2 is added to the product of their ages, we get 200. Find their ages. |

Answer» Age of Ammu = x Age of Divya = x – 7 x(x – 7)+2 = 200 x2 – 7x + 2 = 200 x2 – 7x – 198 = 0 (x – 18) (x + 11) = 0 x = 18, x = – 11 (age will not be a negative number) Age of Ammu = 18, Age of Divya =18 – 7 = 11 |
