Question

The ages of Meera and Alice are in the ratio 5:3. After 5 years the ratio of their ages will
be 10:7. Find their present ages.

Answer 1

∴ Hari's age: 5x, Harry's age ⇒7x

and four years later: Ages will be 5x+4 and 7x+4

As per the question:

7x+4

5x+4

​

=  

4

3

​

 

4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)

20x+16=21x+12

20x−21x=12−16

−x=−4

x=4

Hari's age =5x=5×4=20 years

Harry's age =7x=7×4=28 years
