Using a system of equations, it is found that Ajay is 25 years old today.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
Wale was twice as old as Ajay 10 years back, hence:



Wale will be 40 years old in 10 years, hence:


Then, Ajay's present age is found as follows.

This one is very simple.
create a simple equation to find out
15 = 12 + x
subtract 12 from each side
x= 3
the missing number is 3
or, to be even simpler, take the total, subtract the total from the number you know and the difference is the missing number.
hope I helped
ALSO, we can check going down vertically. 3 + 10 =13. this is the total listed at the bottom.
Answer:38.26 because 2+38=40
40-1.74 =38.26
