Answer 1

Answer:

given,

Joseph's age is three times that of Ramu's age,

let X be Joseph's age and y be Ramu's age.

then,X=3y,

before 5 years,Joseph was four times that of Ramu.

that means,(X-5)=4(y-5),

3y-5=4(y-5),

y=15,

X=3y=45.

Therefore,present ages of Ramu and Joseph are 15 & 45 years respectively.
