Step-by-step explanation:
let Maja's present age be X .
6 years ago , she was x-6 yrs
In 5 years time maja's age will be (X+5) yrs
according to question ,
( X+5) = 2(x-6)
x+5. = 2x-12
x-2x = -12- 5
- X = - 17. ( minuses will be cancelled)
therefore , X = 17 years.
Hence ,
Maja's age is now 17 years old.
