Answer 1

11

Explanation:

Lets start with Jhon, in 4 years he will be 14.

To find Jhon's current age:

14-4 = Jhon 10 years old (current age)

We are also given: Riya is 6 years older than Jhon

10+6 = Riya 16 years old (current age)

Riya's age 5 years ago:

16-5 = Riya 11 years old (5 years ago)
