Let the age be x.
Ratio of their ages : 4:3
Akash’s age : 4x
Vineets age : 3x

3x + 5 = 20
x
3x = 20 - 5 = 15
x = 15/3
= 5

3x = 3x5=15
4x= 4x5=20

Hence when Vineet Will be 20, Akash will be 25
So 25 - 3 = 22

Solution :-

Let us assume that, Akash present age is 4x years and vineet present age is 3x years .

So,

→ After 5 years vineet's age will be = (3x + 5) years .

A/q,

→ 3x + 5 = 20

→ 3x = 20 - 5

→ 3x = 15

→ x = 5

then,

→ Present age of Akash = 4x = 4 * 5 = 20 years .

therefore,

→ Akash's age before 3 years was = 20 - 3 = 17 years (Ans.)
