Question

The age of Hari is five years more than that of Binu. 5 years ago, the ratio of their ages was 3:2.
Find their present ages.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of Binu  be x

Age of Hari will be (x+5)

5 years ago

• Hari's age = x+5-5 = x
• Binu 's age = x - 5

x / (x-5) = 3/2

After cross multiplying and solving for x you will get x = 15

Binu's age = 15 years

Hari's age = 20 years

Answer 2

Binu's age = x years
So Hari's age =( x + 5) years
ATQ, (x+5-5):x-5=3:2
x:(x-5)=3:2
2x = 3x - 15
x=15
Binu's age =15years
Hari's age =20years
