Question

At present thr age of maya and chhya is 6:5 and fiftern years from will get changed to 9:8 , maya present age is

Answer 1

Answer:30

Step-by-step explanation:

let the common multiple be x

therefore, maya=6x and chaya=5x

after 15 years there ratio will be =9:8

therefore 6x+15\5x+15= 9÷8

by doing cross multiplication,

8(6x+15)=9(5x+15)

48x+120=45x+135

48x=45x+15

15=48x-45x

15=3x

=> x=15÷3=5

=> x=5

therefore present age of maya = 6x

= 6×5

= 30

Answer 2

Let the present age of Maya and Chhya be 6x and 5x respectively.

After fifteen years their ahead will be (6x+15) and (5x+15) respectively.

Therefore, ATQ, 6x+15/5x+15=9/8

8(6x+15)=9(5x+15)

48x+120=45x+135

48x-45x=135-120

3x=15

X=5

Therefore, Present age of

Maya=5*6=30

Chhya=5*5=25
