Step-by-step explanation:
let ramu's age be=5x[x≠0]
& sonu's age be=7x
A.T.P.
5x+7x=84
or,12x=84
or,x=84/12
or,x=7
hence, ramu's age is 5×7= 35
& sonu's age is 7×7= 49

Given :
- Ratio of Age = 5:6
- Sum of their ages = 84
To find :
- their present ages
Solution :
- Let the age of Ramu be 5x years and let the ages of Sonu be 7x years.
⇒ Let's create the equation.
→ 5x + 7x = 84 years
→ 12x = 84
→ x = 84/12
→ x = 7
∴ x = 7
⇒ Now, let's find their present ages.
Ramu = 5x
= 5 × 7
= 35 years
Sonu = 7x
= 7 × 7
= 49 years
- Therefore, the present ages of Ramu and Sonu are 35 years and 49 years.
