Question

The ages of Anu and Sumi are in the ratio 6:5.five years later the sum of their ages will be 50years .what are their present ages.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

ratio = 6:5

let their ages be 6x and 5x respectively.

according to question

five years later meaning after 5 years

6x+5 + 5x+5 = 50 years

11 x = 50 -10

x= 40/11

so 6x = 6( 40/11)= 240/11

5x = 5( 40/11) = 200/11

so the age of any and sumi is 240/11 and 200/11 respectively
