STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

.

Let's,

  • The  \: present  \: age  \: of  \: Ramesh \:  be  \: x.
  • The  \: present \:  age  \: of  \: Suresh  \: should \:  be \:  4x.

After  \: 15  \: years,

  • The  \: age  \: of  \: Ramesh \:  be  \: x + 15.
  • The  \:  age  \: of  \: Suresh  \: should \:  be \:  4x + 15. \\

According  \: To  \: Question, \\

\implies (x + 15) : (4x + 15) = 2 : 5 \\

\implies  \frac{x + 15} { 4x + 15} = \frac{2}{5}  \\

\implies  {5(x + 15)} = 2 { (4x + 15)}  \\

\implies  {5x + 75} = { 8x + 30}  \\

\implies  5x  - 8x =   30  - 75\\

\implies    \cancel{-} 3x =   \cancel{  - }45\\

\implies   3x =   45\\

\implies   x =   \frac{45}{3} \\

\implies   x =   15 \\

  • The  \: present  \: age  \: of  \: Ramesh \:  is \: 15 \: years. \\
  • The  \: present \:  age  \: of  \: Suresh  \: should \:  is \: 60 \: years. \\  \\

Let's,Let

s,

The \: present \: age \: of \: Ramesh \: be \: x.ThepresentageofRameshbex.

The \: present \: age \: of \: Suresh \: should \: be \: 4x.ThepresentageofSureshshouldbe4x.

After \: 15 \: years,After15years,

The \: age \: of \: Ramesh \: be \: x + 15.TheageofRameshbex+15.

\begin{gathered}The \: age \: of \: Suresh \: should \: be \: 4x + 15. \\ \end{gathered}

TheageofSureshshouldbe4x+15.

\begin{gathered}According \: To \: Question, \\ \end{gathered}

AccordingToQuestion,

\begin{gathered}\implies (x + 15) : (4x + 15) = 2 : 5 \\ \end{gathered}

⟹(x+15):(4x+15)=2:5

\begin{gathered}\implies \frac{x + 15} { 4x + 15} = \frac{2}{5} \\ \end{gathered}

4x+15

x+15

=

5

2

\begin{gathered}\implies {5(x + 15)} = 2 { (4x + 15)} \\ \end{gathered}

⟹5(x+15)=2(4x+15)

\begin{gathered}\implies {5x + 75} = { 8x + 30} \\ \end{gathered}

⟹5x+75=8x+30

\begin{gathered}\implies 5x - 8x = 30 - 75\\ \end{gathered}

⟹5x−8x=30−75

\begin{gathered}\implies \cancel{-} 3x = \cancel{ - }45\\ \end{gathered}

3x=

45

\begin{gathered}\implies 3x = 45\\ \end{gathered}

⟹3x=45

\begin{gathered}\implies x = \frac{45}{3} \\ \end{gathered}

⟹x=

3

45

\begin{gathered}\implies x = 15 \\ \end{gathered}

⟹x=15

\begin{gathered}The \: present \: age \: of \: Ramesh \: is \: 15 \: years. \\ \end{gathered}

ThepresentageofRameshis15years.

\begin{gathered}The \: present \: age \: of \: Suresh \: should \: is \: 60 \: years. \\ \\ \end{gathered}

ThepresentageofSureshshouldis60years.
