Answer 2

Let the ages of Anu & Raj be 4x and 5x respectively.

According To Question :

$\rm \frac{4x + 8}{5x + 8} = \frac{5}{6} \\ \boxed{ \rm{performing \: \: cross - multiplication}} \\ \rm6(4x + 8) = 5(5x + 8) \\ \rm24x + 48 = 25x + 40 \\ \rm48 - 40 = 25x - 24x \\ \rm{}x = \red 8$

Thus,

• Present age of Anu(4x) = 32 years
• Present age of Raj (5x) = 40 years
