Answer:

Age of younger brother is 14 years..

And age if elder brother is 29 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us denote 'x' as the age of smaller brother,

then, the age of younger brother will be x+15 years.

Equation formed:-

x+x+15 =43

2x+15 = 43

2x = 43-15

2x = 28

X = 28/2

X = 14

Age of younger brother is 14 years.

Age of elder brother = x + 15

Age of elder brother 14 + 15 = 29 years.
