A and B are together 90 years old. Five years ago, A was thrice as old as B was. Hence, the ages of A and B five years back would be (x – 5) years and (85 – x) years, respectively.
True
Let the age of A be x yr.
Then, age of S = (90 – x) yr
Five years ago, the age of A = (x- 5) yr
The age of B= 90-x-5 = (85-x)yr
Hence, the ages of A and 8 five years back would be (x – 5) yr and (85 – x) yr, respectively.
