(2) 4 years (4) 8 years

(5) 5 years​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let the present age of ram =x years

And the present age of his daughter=y years

Now 2 years ago

Ram's age was =(x-2)years

And now according to the question...

Ram's age' 2 years ago was five times his daughter's

So..

x-2=5y

Ram' son's present age is =(y-2) years

Now

x/ y+2=4/1

4y+8=x

4y+8=5y+2

y=6

Therefore his daughter's present age is=6years

Therefore his daughter's present age is=6yearsAnd his sons present age is=6-2=4years
