Answer:
Their present ages are 32 and 56
Step-by-step explanation:
Present age ratio of Arpita and Beena = 4:7
Let present age of Arpita = 4x
Let present age of Beena =7x
Eight years ago age ratio of Arpita and Beena are 1:2
first, we have to find ages of both Arpita and Beena eight years ago,
Eight years ago,
age of Arpita = 4x-8
age of Beena = 7x-8
(4x-8):(7x-8) :: 1:2
2(4x-8) = 7x-8
8x-16 = 7x-8
8x-7x = -8+16
x = 8
therefore,
Present age of Arpita= 4x = 4x8
= 32
Present age of Beena = 7x = 7x8
= 56
