Shakeel is 12 years older than Dawood. Five years ago, the sum of their ages was 28. The present age of Shakeel is ______ years.
- 10
- 20
- 25
- None of these
Explanation
Let Dawood's age = x
Shakeel's age = x + 12
Five years ago:
Dawood's age = x - 5
Shakeel's age = x + 12 - 5 = x + 7
(x - 5) + (x + 7) = 28
2x + 2 = 28
2x = 26
x = 13
Shakeel's age = x + 12 = 13 + 12 = 25
