Answer 2

Answer:

${ \huge { \underline{ \rm{ \large{ \pink{Given}}}}}}$

• Combined age of jaya and vinay = 72

• Ratio of their ages = 4:5

${ \huge{ \underline{ \rm{ \large{ \red{Find}}}}}}$

• Age of Vinay?

${ \huge { \underline{ \rm{ \large{ \blue{Solution}}}}}}$

Let take the age of jaya as "X"

Age of vinay as "Y"

Ratio of their ages = 4:5

Sum of ages = 72

${ \to{ \sf{4x + 5x = 72}}}$

${ \to{ \sf{9x = 72}}}$

${ \to{ \sf{x = \frac{72}{9} = 8 }}}$

${ \boxed{ \sf{x = 8}}}$

⇒ Jaya age = 4x = 4×8 = 32

⇒ Vinay age = 5x = 5×8 = 40

${ \bold{ \sf{ \therefore{Age \: of \: Vinay = 40 \: years}}}}$
