Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

a) ans- 23:7

b) ans- 11:3

c) ans- 27:11

d) ans- 5:1

a) Ans-

Present age of father = 46 years

Present age of son = 14 years

Ratio= Present age of father

Present age of son

= 46 = 23 = 23:7 ans

14 7

b) Ans-

Age of father when son was 14 years old = 46

Age of father when son was 13 years old = 45

Age of father when son was 12 years old = 44

so,

Ratio = Age of father

Age of son

= 44 = 22 = 11 = 11:3 ans

12 6 3

c) ans

Age of father after 8 years = Present age of father + 8

= 46+8 = 54 years

Age of son after 8 years = Present age of son + 8

so,

Ratio = Age of father after 8 year

Age of son after 8 year

= 54 = 27 = 27:11 ans

22 11

d) ans

when father was 46 years old, son's age = 14

when father was 45 years old, son's age = 13

when father was 44 years old, son's age = 12

when father was 40 years old, son's age = 12-8 = 4

so,

Ratio = Age of father

Age of son

= 40 = 10 = 5 = 5:1 ans
