Question

The ages of ram and mukta are in the ratio of 3:5 after 9 years , the ratio of their ages will become 3:4 .what will be mukta's present age?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Ram and Mukta be 3x and 5x respectively.

After 9 years,

Age of Ram = 3x+9

Age of Mukta = 5x+9

ATQ

3(5x+9) = 4(3x+9)

15x+27 = 12x+36

3x = 9

x = 3

Therefore,

Ram present age = 3x = 9 years

Mukta present age = 5x = 15years

Answer 2

Answer:

The present age of Mukta is 15 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Ram be 3x and the present age of Mukta be 5x, where x is a constant.

After 9 years, the age of Ram will be 3x + 9 and the age of Mukta will be 5x + 9.

According to the given condition, the ratio of their ages after 9 years will be 3:4:

(3x + 9) / (5x + 9) = 3/4

Cross-multiplying, we get:

12x + 36 = 15x + 27

Simplifying, we get:

3x = 9

x = 3

Therefore, the present age of Mukta is 5x = 5(3) = 15 years.
