​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The ages of Ram and Shyam are in the ratio 2:1 and after 5 years their ratios are 3:2, then what is the present age?

Solution: The current ages of Ram and Shyam are R and S.

R:S = 2:1 or

R = 2S, or

2R = 4S …(1)

(R+5):(S+5) = 3:2, or

2R+10 = 3S+15, or

2R = 3S+5 …(2)

From (1) and (2): 4S = 3S+5, or S = 5.

So, Shyam is 5 years nor and Ram is 10. Answer.

Answer 2

Ratio of ages= 3:4

Let Ram's age = 3x ….Shyam's age = 4x

A.T.Q

After 5 yr

Age of Ram = 3x + 5

Age of Shyam = 4x + 5

So,3x +5 + 4x + 5 = 45

7x + 10 = 45

7x = 35

x = 5

So, Ram's age = 5× 3 = 15 yrs

Shyam's age = 4× 5 = 20 yr
