1. Answer:

   Let the age of Vijay be x.

   Then the age of Ajay will be 5x.

   So,

   x+5x=25

   or,6x=25

   or,x=25/6

   So, Ajay’s age=25/6×5

   =126/6

   =21 years

   So, the age of Ajay is 21 years.

2. Answer

   Ajay’s age is 10 years

   Step by Step Explanation :

   Let Ajay’s age be x years

   and Vijay’s age be y years

   According to first condition,

   x=y-5

   therefore, x-y=-5——(i)

   According to second condition,

   x+y=25——(ii)

   Adding (i) and (ii)

   x-y=-5

   x+y=25

   ————

   2x =20

   x =20/2

   x=10

   Therefore, Ajay’s age us 10 years
