Question

Ritu's age is is thrice age of lata.Eight years ago Ritu's age was 4 times latas age . Find their present ages​

Answer 1

Answer:

72 yrs,24 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

let Lata's present age be x

then Ritu's present age=3x

8 years ago: Ritu's age=3x-8

Lata's age=x-8

According to question, 3x-8=4(x-8)

3x-8=4x-32

x=24

Ritu's present age=3x=3×24=72 years

Lata's present age=x=24 years

Answer 2

=> solution  

= ritus age = thrice of lata

=let latas age be x and ritus age be 3x

= 8 years ago that is x - 8 ; 3x - 8 ; ritus age was 4 times the age of lata  

Equation =  

3x - 8 = 4 ( x - 8 )

3x - 8 = 4 x - 32

X = 24

Ritu's present age = 3x = 3 * 24=72 years

Lata's present age = x = 24 years
