Answer:

\huge\textbf{Answer:-}

Let the present ages of Any and Raj be 4x and 5x so, the years after eight years anu's age will be 4x + 8 years, and after eight years Raj's age will be 5x+8 years.

Therefore , the ration of their both age after eight years is :-

 \frac{4x + 8}{5x + 8}

The given to be 5:6

Therefore,

 \frac{4x + 8}{5x + 8}  =  \frac{5}{6}

We need to Cross multiply:-

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

 =  > 24x + 48 = 25x + 40

 =  > 24x + 48 - 40 = 25x

 =  > 24x + 8 = 25x

 =  > 8 = 25x - 24x

 =  > 8 = x

Therefore, the value of x is 8 and the anu's Present age is 4x = 4 × 8 = 32 years And Raj's present age is 5x = 5 × 8 = 40 years.

\huge\textbf{Answer:-}

Let the present ages of Any and Raj be 4x and 5x so, the years after eight years anu's age will be 4x + 8 years, and after eight years Raj's age will be 5x+8 years.

Therefore , the ration of their both age after eight years is :-

 \frac{4x + 8}{5x + 8}

The given to be 5:6

Therefore,

 \frac{4x + 8}{5x + 8}  =  \frac{5}{6}

We need to Cross multiply:-

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

 =  > 24x + 48 = 25x + 40

 =  > 24x + 48 - 40 = 25x

 =  > 24x + 8 = 25x

 =  > 8 = 25x - 24x

 =  > 8 = x

Therefore, the value of x is 8 and the anu's Present age is 4x = 4 × 8 = 32 years And Raj's present age is 5x = 5 × 8 = 40 years.
