Use The linear equations in Two variable for solving this sum By taking x and y as variables​
only give correct answer otherwise i will report you if you gaved incorrect answer

Answer 1

present age of Reena= 32yrs.

present age of mina = 40 yrs.

Step-by-step explanation:

let reena's age = x yrs

meena's age = y yrs.

x/y=4/5

x=4y/5

After 8 yrs,

x+8/y+8=5/6

6x+48=5y+40

y(4y/5)-5y+8=0

24y/5-5y/1+8/1

(24y-25y+40)/5=0

-y=-40

y=40yrs.

x= 4 X 40 / 5 = 32 yrs
