Question

raju is 19 years younger than his cousin after 5 years there ages will be in the ratio 2:3 find their present ages

Answer 1

x-19+5÷x+5=2÷3

2(x+5)=3(x-19+5)

2x+10=3x-57+15

2x+10=3x-42

2x-3x=-42-10

-x=-52

x=52. Answer

Answer 2

hey friend

here's your answer

Let the present age of Raju be x
and that of his cousin be x + 19


After 5 years their ages will be x + 5 and x + 24 respectively


According to question the equation so formed is

(x+5)/(x+24)=2/3

=>3(x+5)=2(x+24)

=> 3 x+ 15 = 2 x + 48

=> 3x - 2 x = 48 - 15

=> x= 33
Therefore Raju's age is 33 or Raju is 33 years old
and his cousin's 8 = x + 19
= 33 + 19 = 52

therefore his cousin is 52 years old
