Present age of Monu be 5x years
Sonu’s age after 10 years = (7x + 10) years
Monu’s age after 10 years = (5x + 10) years
so,
(7x + 10) / (5x + 10) = 9/7
by using cross-multiplication we get,
,7(7x + 10) = 9(5x + 10)
49x + 70 = 45x + 90
49x – 45x = 90 – 70
4x = 20
x = 20/4
= 5
∴ Present age of Sonu is 7x = 7(5) = 35years
Present age of Monu is 5x = 5(5) = 25years
