Answer:
20 years and 24 years
Step-by-step explanation:
let,
the present age of Prashanth be x years
let present age of Arun be (x+4) years
Thus,
Prashanth's age 4 years ago= (x-4) years
Arun's age 4 years ago = (x+4-4) years = x years
Given:
4 years ago, the ratio of Arun's and Prashanth's age was 5:4
=> x:(x+4) = 5:4
=> x/(x+4) = 5/4
=> 4x = 5(x-4)
=> 4x = 5x - 20
=> 20 = 5x - 4x { Transposing }
=> 20 = x
thus,
present age of Prashanth (x) = 20 years
present age of Arun (x+4) = (20+4) = 24 years
