Question

Reena is 10 years elder than Sunita if the ratio of their age is 5 ratio 3 then their ages will be

Answer 1

let's sunita's age = x
and reena's age = 10+x
then according to question
$10 +x \div x = 5 \div 3 \\30 + 3x = 5x \\ 30 = 2x \\ x = 15$
so reena's age is 10+x = 10+15=25
and sunita's age =x =15
hope this will help you

Answer 2

Ratio of Reena : Sunita:

5 : 3

-

Find difference in parts:

5 - 3 = 2

-

Find 1 part:

Given the difference in age is 10,

2 parts = 10

1 part = 10 ÷ 2 = 5

-

Find 3 parts (Sunita's age)

1 part = 5

3 parts = 5 x 3 = 15

-

Find 5 parts (Renna's age):

1 part = 5

5 parts = 5 x 5 = 25

-

Answer: Reena = 25 years old, Sunita = 15 years old
