Answer 2

Answer:

Required present salary of Sham is 30000 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,Salaries of Ram and Sham are in the

ratio of 4:5.

Let, salary of Ram be 4x rupees and salary of Sham be 5x rupees.

Now, their salary increased by 5000 rupees.

Now,salary of Ram is $(4x + 5000) \: rupees$

and salary of Sham is $(5x + 5000) \: rupees$

Therefore ratio of their present salary is

$(4x + 5000):(5x + 5000)$

According to question,

$(4x + 5000):(5x + 5000) = 50:60 \\ \frac{4x + 5000}{5x + 5000} = \frac{50}{60}$

$\frac{4x + 5000}{5x + 5000} = \frac{5}{6}$

By cross multiplication,

$6(4x + 5000) = 5(5x + 5000) \\ 24x + 30000 = 25x + 25000 \\ 25x - 24x = 30000 - 25000 \\ x = 5000$

Present salary of Ram is

$(4 \times 5000 + 5000) \\ = 20000 + 5000 \\ = 25000 \: rupees$

and present salary of Sham is

$(5 \times 5000 + 5000) \\ = 25000 + 5000 \\ = 30000 \: rupees$
