Step-by-step explanation:
let the ani 's age - 4x & Rani's age - 5x.
After 8 years Ani's age = 4x+8.
And Rani's age = 5x+8.
After 8 years, the ratio of Ani's age and Rani's age is 4x+8 :5x8 .
But according to data this ratio is equal to 5:6 .
4x+8:5x+8=5:6.
I. e .., 6(4x+8)=5(5x+8).
24x+48=25x+40.
48 - 40 = 25x-24x ( transposing 40 to LHS and 24x to RHS.
8 = 1x
1x = 8
x = 8/1 = 8
Therefore Ani's age = 4x = 4* 8 =32 years.
Rani's age = 5x = 5*8 =40 years .
