Question

Ratio of age of Ram & Shyam is 3:4. Sum of their ages after 5 years is 45 . Find their ages.

Answer 1

Let the age of Ram be 3x and the age of Shyam be 4x
After 5 years...
Age of Ram = 3x+5
Age of Shyam = 4x+5
Sum of their ages = (3x+5) + (4x+5) = 45
7x+10 = 45 or 7x =35 or x=5


Hence,Age of Ram = 3x = 3(5) =15 years
Age of Shyam = 4x = 4(5) =20 years
