Answer:
Present age of A = 12 years
Present age of B = 20 years
Explanation:
Let the age of A and B be 3x and 5x
After 4 years
Age of A = 3x + 4
Age of B = 5x + 4
According to question
3x+4/5x+4 = 2/3
9x + 12 = 10x + 8
12 - 8 = 10x -9x
x = 4
So
Age of A = 3x = 3 × 4 = 12 years
Age of B = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20 years
