Question

Present ages of ‘A’ and ‘B’ are in the ratio 8:10 , six years
from now, the ratio of their ages will be 10:12. Find their
present ages.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of A be '8x'

and present age of B be '10y'

According to the question,

six years from now,

age of A will be "8x+6=10x"

age of B will be "10y+6=12y"

present age of A》

=>8x+6=10x

=>6=10x-8x

=>6=2x

=>x=6/2

=>x=3

present age of A ☞8x=(8×3)

present age of A ☞8x=(8×3) =24

present age of B》

=>10y+6=12y

=>6=12y-10y

=>6=2y

=>y=6/2

=>y=3

present age of B ☞ 10y=(10×3)

present age of B ☞ 10y=(10×3) =30
