Question

manish and santosh age proportion is 2:3 if manish age after 10 year is 20 what is the age of santosh

Answer 1

Hi mate !!

Here's the answer !!

Let the present ages of Manish and Santosh be 2x and 3x.

After 10 years, their ages would be 2x + 10 and 3x + 10.

But it is given that Manish's age after 10 years is 20. Therefore

= 2x + 10 = 20

= 2x = 20 - 10

= 2x = 10

=> x = 5.

Santhosh's age before 10 years would be 3x which is 3 * 5 = 15 years.

After 10 years it would be 15 + 10 = 25 years.

Hope my answer helped !!

Cheers !!

Answer 2

Let the proportion be x
So
2x 3x
Manish age after 10 years is 20
So
2x+10 =20
2x=20-10
X=10\2
X=5
So
The age of manish before 10 years 2x=2*5=10
Then
The age of santhosh =3x=3*5=15
After 10 years santhosh age =15+10=25


I hope this will help you
