Given:

  • Present ages of Anu and Raju are in ratio = 4:5
  • After eight years the ratio of their ages will be = 5:6

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Need to find:

  • Their present ages =?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Solution:-

  • Let Anu's age be = 4x years

  • Let Raj's age be = 5x years

━━━━━━━━━━━

Then,

After eight years:-

→ Anu's age = 4x +8 years

→ Raj's age = 5x + 8 years

→ Ratio of their ages = (4x + 8) : (5x + 8)

━━━━━━━━━━━

Also given:-

→ The ratio after eight years = 5:6

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

24x + 48 = 25x + 40

25x - 24x = 48 - 40

\purple{\bold{\boxed { x= 8}}}

━━━━━━━━━━━

Anu's present age :

= 4x

= 4 × 8 years

= \red{\bold{\boxed {\large{ 32years }}}}

Raj's present age:

=5x

= 5× 8 years

= \red{\bold{\boxed{\large{40 years}}}}
