====================================
The difference between the ages of Sheela and Anshu is 21 years. If the ratio of their ages is 9:2, find their ages.
Let Sheela's age be '9x'.
Then, Anshu's age = '2x'
So, the difference between their ages
= Sheela's age - Anshu's age
= 9x - 2x
But, the difference between the ages = 21 (as given in the question)
So,
9x - 2x = 21
=> 7x = 21
=> x = 21/7
=> x = 3
So,
Sheela's age = 9x = 9 × 3 = 27 years.
Anshu's age = 2x = 2 × 3 = 6 years.
