Question

Answer with correct reason

Answer 1

option d is right answer

5 years ago

age of Mr Dhuryodhana = 5x-5

age of Mr Dushyasana = 4x-5

ratio = (5x-5)/(4x-5).......(1)

when we put it equal to 4/3 or 4:3

then,

(5x-5)/(4x-5) = 4/3

3(5x-5) = 4(4x-5)

15x-15 = 16x-20

-15+20 = 16x-15x

5 = x

it is positive

so it is the ratio of their ages

simillarly

we put option (2) and (3) which also give +ve value of x

but by putting 8:7 equal to equation (1) we get -ve value of x

Hence 8:7 is not the ratio of their ages
