• Let the present age of Rishi and Tarun be 6x and 8x respectively.
⇝ After 5 years their ages:-
- (Rishi's age = 6x+5)
- (Tarun's age = 8x+5)
⇝According To Question
- (After 5 years the ratio of their ages will be 4:5)
6x+5/8x+5= 4/5
5(6x+5)=4(8x+5)
30x+25=32x+20
32x-30x=25-20
2x=5
x=5/2
______________________________________
Hence,
- Rishi's age = 6x=6(5/2)=3(5)=15
- Tarun's age = 8x=8(5/2)=4(5)=20
_______________________________________
Hence, Present age of Rishi :- 15 years.
Present age of Tarun :- 20 years.

Question
the ages of Rishi and Tarun are in the rario of 6:8. five years from now the ratio will be 4:5. find the present ages.
Answer
Given data:-
- ➠The ratio of their age's
- before 5 year = 6:8
- ➠The ratio of their age's
- after 5 year = 4:5
To find:-
- ➠Find their present age's = ?
Solution:-
- ☆Let the present age of Rishi will be 6x and Tarun will be 8x.
After 5 year their age's become
- Age of Rashi = ( 6x + 5 )
- Age of Turan = ( 8x + 5 )
According to the question
- After 5 year the ratio of their age's become 4:5 and it can be written as 4/5
Now,
- ➠((6x + 5)÷(8x + 5))= 4/5
- ➠5(6x+5)=4(8x+5)
- ➠30x−25=32x+20
- ➠32x−30x=25−20
- ➠ 2x = 5
- ➠x = 5/2
Now Put the value of x in the age of Rishi and Tarun.
- ➠Age of Rishi
- ➠6x = 6(5/2) = 3(5) = 15
- ➠Age of Tarun
- ➠8x = 8(5/2) = 4(5) = 20
