Question

Q23. The ages of Sonu and Seema are in the ratio 5:3. Five years hence, the ratio of their ages
will be 10: 7. Find their present ages.​

Answer 1

Sonu age = 30

Seema age = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio be x

then the age of sonu would be 5x

and semma age would be 3x

Five years hence

Sonu age =(5x+10)

Seema age= (3x+10)

A.T.Q.

5x+10 10

----------- = -----

3x+10 7

7(5×+10)=10(3×+10)

35x+70=30x+100

35X - 30X= 100-70

5× = 30

x= 30

------ = 6

5

x=6

Sonu present age=5x=5×6

=30

Seema present age = 3x= 3×6

= 18
