Question

6. The ages of Neha and Hema are in the ratio
9:7. Ten years ago, their ages were in the
ratio 7:5. Find their present ages. ​

Answer 1

Let Neha and Himas present age be 9X and 7x

10 years ago

Neha=9x-10

Hema=7x-10

It is given that. 9x-10/7x-10=7/5

Therefore

45x-50=49x-70

20=4x

X=5

Hence Neha sages 45(9*5) and hemas ages 35(7*5).
