Answer:
Let the present age of Sonu be 7x years
Present age of Monu be 5x years
➙ Sonu’s age After 10 years = (7x + 10) years
➙ Monu’s age after 10 years = (5x + 10) years
So, according to the question or ATQ :-
➔ (7x + 10) / (5x + 10) = 9/7
By using cross-multiplication we get,
➔ 7(7x + 10) = 9(5x + 10)
➔ 49x + 70 = 45x + 90
➔ 49x – 45x = 90 – 70
➔ 4x = 20
➔ x = 20/4
➔ x = 5
∴ Present age of Sonu is 7x = 7(5) = 35years
Present age of Monu is 5x = 5(5) = 25years
