Answer 1

Answer:

A's present age is 48 years

and B's present age is 18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume A's present age is 8x

It is given that, the ages of A and B are in the ratio 8:3

∴ B's present age is 3x.

∴ After six years, A's age will be 8x + 6

and, After six years, B's age will be 3x + 6

According to the problem:

$\frac{8x + 6}{3x + 6} = \frac{9}{4}$

=> 32x + 24 = 27x + 54

=> 5x = 30

∴ x = $\frac{30}{5} = 6$

A's present age is 8 x 6 = 48 years

and B's present age is 3 x 6 = 18 years
