Answer 2

Answer:

• The present age of Ram is 2.5 years. and
• The present age of Shyam is 1.5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

• The present ages of Ram and Shyam are in the ratio of 5:3,
• Three yearslater, the ratio of their ages will become 11:9

To find:

• Ram and Shyam'spresent age in years?

Solution:

Let the present age of Ram be 5x

Let the present age of Shyam be x

three years later

Age of Ram became = 5x+3

Age of Shyam became = 3x+3

$= > \frac{5x + 3}{3x + 3} = \frac{11}{9} \\ = > 45x + 27 = 33x + 33 \\ = > 45x - 33x = 33 - 27 \\ = > 12x = 6 \\ = > x = \frac{6}{12} \\ = >x = \frac{1}{2}$

Now

The present age of Ram = 5x => 5×½ => 2.5 years.

The present age of Shyam => 3x => 3×½ => 1.5 years.
