Saransh is 50 years old and Nagma is 40 years old. How long ago was the ratio 3:2..

$\huge{\mathcal{ \underline\red{Answer}}}$

➪Present age of Saransh = 50 years

➪Present age of Nagma = 40 years

➪x years ago the ratio of the ages of Saransh and Nagma = 3:2

➪x years ago = $\frac{saransh}{nagma} = \frac{3}{2}$

$⇒ \frac{50 - x}{40 - x} = \frac{3}{2}$

➪Do cross multiply

⇒2(50-x) = 3(40-x)

⇒100 - 2x = 120 - 3x

⇒3x - 2x = 120 - 100

⇒x = 20

➪ 20 years ago the ratio of the ages of Saransh and Nagma was 3:2..
