of Kirti?​

Answer 1

Answer:

33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

solving using ratio method

5 years ago age of Kiran was half the age of Kirthi

so ratio 1:2

after nine years the ratio becomes

ratio    2:3

   1 unit = 5+9=14

age of kirthi 5 years ago 14*2= 28

so the present age of Kirti

     =   28+5 = 33 years
