the age of Rohan and Rohit are in the ratio 5 ratio 7. 4 years later there is will be in the ratio 3 ratio 4 find their age
Answers
- The age of Rohan and Rohit are in the ratio 5 :7
- 4 years later there is will be in the ratio 3 : 4
Let,
- Present Age of Rohan = x years
- Present Age of Rohit = y years
A/C to question,
(The age of Rohan and Rohit are in the ratio 5 :7)
➥ x : y = 5 :7
➥x/y = 5/7
➥ 7x - 5y = 0_________(1)
Again,
(4 years later there is will be in the ratio 3 : 4)
➥ (x+4):(y+4) = 3:4
➥ (x+4)/(y+4) = 3/4
➥ 4 * (x+4) = 3 * (y+4)
➥ 4x - 3y = 12 - 16
➥ 4x - 3y = -4 __________(2)
Multiply by 3 in equ(1) & 5 in equ(2)
- 21x - 15y = 0
- 20x - 15y = -20
_________________Sub. its
➥ 21x - 20x = 20
➥ x = 20
Keep value of x in equ(1)
➥ 7 × 20 - 5y = 0
➥ 5y = 140
➥y = 140/5
➥y = 28
- Present Age of Rohan (x) = 20 years
- Present Age of Rohit(y) = 28 years
