Question

The difference between the present ages of Kapil and Jayesh is 6 years. The ratio between their ages after 4 years will be 3 : 4. What is the present age of Jayesh?

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

difference between jayesh and kapil=6

after 4 years

the ratio of their ages are 3:4

so their ages after 4 years are

kapil=3x+4

jayesh=4x+4

difference=(3x+4)-(4x+4)

=3x+4-4x+4=6-4

=-x+8=2

-x=2-8

-x=-6

cut both the -

x=6

jayesh=4x

4×6

=24 years
