Question

the ages of Asha and Nirmala's are in the ratio 5:6. five years from now their ages will be 6:7. Find their ages. plz answer it. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

let Asha's present age=x

let Nirmal's present age = y

therefore, x:y = 5:6

let common multiple be k

then, x=5k and y=6k

and, asha's age 5 years from now = x+5

Nirmal's age 5 years from now= y+5

therefore, (x+5):(y+5)= 6:7

5k+5 / 6k+5 = 6/7

or, 35k+35= 36k+30

or, k=5

therefore, present age of Asha=25

and Nirmal= 30
