Hola!!
Here's Your Answer!!
Given:-
Ratio of Seema's age to Rekha's age = 5:3
Let Rekha's age be x Years Old
then,
according to the given condition,
Seema's age = x+10 Years
So now,
x+10/x = 5/3
Solving the equation we'll get,
3(x+10) = 5x
3x + 30 = 5x
30 = 5x - 3x
30 = 2x
x = 30/2
x = 15
So, Rekha's Age is 15 Years
and since Seema is 10 Years elder than Rekha, Seema's age is 15+10 i.e. 25 Years!
Hope this helps!!!
