Answer:
Let the age of Ram and Shyam be 8x and 3x respectively.
After six years, Ram's age=(8x+6) years
After six years, Shyam's age=(3x+6)
Therefore, the ratio of their ages after six years
= 8x + 6
3x + 6
This is given to be 9:4
Therefore, 8x + 6 = 9
3x + 6 4
Cross - multiplication gives
4 (8x+6) = 9 (3x+6)
or, 32x + 24 = 27x + 54
or, 32x - 27x = 54 - 24
or, 5x = 30
or, x = 30/5
x = 6
Therefore, Ram's present age = 8x
= 8 × 6 = 48 years.
& Shyam's present age=3x=3×6=18years.
