It is given that 4 years ago the ratio of ages of Kanchan and Khushi was 3:4
Also, the sum of ages was 42 years
Now, let us assume the ages of Kanchan and Khushi to be 3x and 4x 4 years ago
So, 3x + 4x = 42
7x = 42
x = 6
so, 3x = 3(6)
= 18
4x = 4(6)
= 24
So, 4 years ago Kanchan and Khush's age was 18 and 24 respectively
So, present age of Kanchan = 18 + 4
= 22
present age of Khushi = 24 + 4
=28
Hence, present ages of Kanchan and Khushi is 22 and 28 years respectively.
