उत्तर
10
Explanation:
Let Ajay's age be x years and Vijay's age be y years.
Ajay is younger than Vijay by 5 years.
y - x = 5 ...(I)
Sum of their ages is 25 years.
x + y = 25 ...(II)
Adding (I) and (II) we have
2y = 30
⇒ y = 15
x = 10
Thus, Ajay's age is 10 years.

The sum of the two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 132. The digit in the ten’s place is 2 more than the digit in the unit’s place. Complete the activity to find the original number.
Activity: Let the digit in the unit’s place be y and the digit in the ten’s place be x.
∴ The number = 10x + y
∴ The number obtained by interchanging the digits = `square`
∴ The sum of the number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits = 132
∴ 10x + y + 10y + x = `square`
∴ x + y = `square` ...(i)
By second condition,
Digit in the ten’s place = digit in the unit’s place + 2
∴ x – y = 2 ...(ii)
Solving equations (i) and (ii)
∴ x = `square`, y = `square`
Ans: The original number = `square`
