Question

Present ages of Anu and Raj are in the ratio 4:5. Eight years from now the ratio of their ages
will be 5:6. Find their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

present age of Anu - 32

present age of raj - 40

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Anu's present age = 4

Raj's present age =5

let's present age of anu = 4x

let's present age of Raj = 5x

anu's age after 8 years = 5

Raj's age after 8 years = 6

6(4x+8)=5(5x+8)

(6x4)x+(6×8)=(5×5)x + (5×8)

24x - 48 = 25x + 40

48-40 = 25x - 24x

8 = x

Anu's age = 4×8 = 32

Raj's age = 5×8 = 40
