Answer 1

Answer:

Present Ages:-

A = 40 years

B = 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of B be x.

So, present age of A is 5x.

According to the question, equation is:-

5x + x = 48

6x = 48

x = 48/6 = 8

So, present age of B = x = 8 years.

present age of A = 5x = 5×8 = 40 years.
