Answer 2

Answer:

A = 20 ;

B = 15;

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of B be x ;

Now, the age of A is (x+5) ;

Before 5 years,

Age of B is (x-5) ;

Age of A is x ;

Total age is (2x-5) ;

The ratio of A and B is 3:2 respectively ;

ie, age of A is,

(3/5)*(2x-5) = x ;

6x - 15 = 5x ;

x = 15

Age of B is 15 ;

Age of A is (x+5) = 15 + 5 = 20 ;
