Answer 1

Answer:

Kuldeep - 35 years, Asad - 50 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Present ratio = 5:8, Past ratio = 4:7

Let present ages of Kuldeep and Asad be 5x and 8x respectively.

So, 5 years ago ages:

Kuldeep - 5x-5, Asad = 8x-5

Let's equate,

(5x-5) / (8x-5) = 4 / 7

⇒7(5x-5) = 4(8x-5)

⇒35x - 35 = 32x - 20

⇒3x = 15

⇒x = 5

∴ Present age of Kuldeep = 25 years

  Present age of Asad = 40 years

So, ages after 10 years:

Kuldeep = 35 years

Asad = 50 years
