If Saurabh is as much elder than Shyam as he is younger to Suresh and ...
Let the present ages of Saurabh is x year and he is younger to Suresh by y year
Then Suresh’s age = x + y
Shyam’s age = x – y
(x + y) + (x – y) = 46
x = 23
The age of Saurabh after five years is – 28

If Saurabh is as much elder than Shyam as he is younger to Suresh and ...
Given:
- Saurabh is as much elder than Shyam as he is younger to Suresh.
- The sum of the ages of Shyam and Suresh is 46 years.
To find:
- The age of Saurabh after five years.
Let's assume the age of Shyam as x years and the age of Suresh as y years.
According to the given information, we can form the following equations:
- Saurabh's age = Shyam's age + (Shyam's age - Suresh's age)
- Shyam's age + Suresh's age = 46
Simplifying the first equation, we get:
- Saurabh's age = 2 * Shyam's age - Suresh's age
Since Saurabh's age is dependent on Shyam's and Suresh's age, we need to find their values.
Solving the second equation, we get:
- Shyam's age = 46 - Suresh's age
Substituting this value in the first equation, we get:
- Saurabh's age = 2 * (46 - Suresh's age) - Suresh's age
Simplifying further:
- Saurabh's age = 92 - 2 * Suresh's age - Suresh's age
- Saurabh's age = 92 - 3 * Suresh's age
Now, we need to find the age of Saurabh after five years. Let's represent it as Saurabh's age after five years = Saurabh's age + 5.
Substituting the value of Saurabh's age from the previous equation, we get:
- Saurabh's age after five years = 92 - 3 * Suresh's age + 5
- Saurabh's age after five years = 97 - 3 * Suresh's age
To find the value of Saurabh's age after five years, we need to know the value of Suresh's age. However, the given information does not provide any specific value for Suresh's age. Therefore, we cannot determine the exact age of Saurabh after five years.
Hence, the correct answer cannot be determined from the given information.
