Question

Present age of Ram is 24years. What would be the ratio of his age after two years to his age before 4 years?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let 2x and 3x be the present ages of Ram and Rahul.

According to question-

3x+10

2x+10

​  

=  

4

3

​  

 

4(2x+10)=3(3x+10)

8x+40=9x+30

⇒9x−8x=40−30

⇒x=10

Therefore,

Present age of Ram =2x=2×10=20 years

Present age of Rahul =3x=3×10=30 years

Answer 2

Answer:

his age after 2 years from now = 26

his age before 4 years from now = 20

ratio of his age after two years to his age before 4 yyears = 26\20

=13\10
