Answer : 32 and 40 years
Answer : 32 and 40 years respectively
Step by step explanation:
Let the age of Anu be 4x and that of Raj be 5x.
As per the condition,
4x + 8 + 5x + 8 = 5x + 6x
9x + 16 = 11x
16 = 11x - 9x
2x = 16
x = 8
Thus,
Present age of Anu = 4x = 4(8) = 32
Present age of Raj = 5x = 5(8) = 40
Hence, Their present age is 32 years and 40 years respectively.
