Question

3): 5 years ago, the sum of the ages of Kavita and Reema was 70 years and their
ages were in the ratio 3 : 4. Find the ratio of their present ages
​

Answer 1

Five years age ago;

Kavita age+ Reema age=70

Let ;

Kavita age ratio=3x
Reema ration=4x

According to question;
4x+3x=70
7x=70
x=10

Kavita age =3x
=3×10=30

Reema =4x=40

Now present age;

Kavita=35
Reema=45

Their ratio=35/45
=7/9



Their presnt age ratio=7/9

Answer 2

Answer:-

Let the common ratio be x

Age of kavita= 3x

Age of Reema=4x

Given,Sum of ages of Kavita and reema 5 years ago= 70 years

Now,

3x+4x= 70

$\bold{ \implies \: 7x = 70}$

$\implies \bold{x = \frac{70}{7} }$

$\huge \bf \red{ \implies \: x = 10}$

Now,

$\textsf{Present age of Kavita = 3x+5= 30+5= 35 years}$

$\textsf{Present age of Reema= 4x+5= 40+5= 45 years}$
