Question

Amit is 19 times younger than his cousin After 5 years,their ages will be in the ratio of 2:3 find their present ages .​

Answer 1

Let cousin's age be x

So, Amit's age will bex−19

After 5 years ratio of their ages will be=32

So,

x+5x−19+5=32

x+5x−14=32

3x−42=2x+10

3x−2x=42+10

x=52

x−19=52−19=33

Therefore present age of Amit is 33 years and present age of his cousin is 52years.
