Question

the ages of rahul and rose are in the ratio of 6:5.five years later from now, their ages will be 7:6.find their present ages ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of rahul and rose present age is 6:5

so, let their ages be 6x and 5x

after five years their ages will be in ratio 7:6

therefore, (6x + 6) / (5x + 6) = 7/6

or, 6(6x+6) = 7(5x+6)

or, 36x + 36 = 35x + 42

or, 42-36 = 36x -35x

or, 6= 1x

or, x = 6

therefore, present age of rahul = 6x = (6×6) =36

present age of rose = 5x = (5×6) =30
