Question

The ages of Rahul and laxmi are in ratio of 5:7 four years later the sum of their ages will be 56 years what are their present ages

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ages be 5x and 7x

After 4 years age of both of them increases by 4

According to question

(5x+4) + (7x+4)= 56

5x +4 +7x+4 =56

12x +8 =56

12x = 56-8

12x = 48

x = 48/12

x = 4

Present age of rahul = 5*4= 20

Present age of laxmi = 7*4 = 28

Hope this helps...
