Present age of anil =14 years
Present age of Sunil =10 years
Let after x years, ratio of their ages will become 5:4
Age of anil after x years =14+x years
Age of sunil after x years =10+x years
Now,
10+x14+x=45
Cross multiply:
4(14+x)=5(10+x)
56+4x=50+5x
56−50=5x−4x
6=x
Therefore, after 6 years, ratio of their

Answer:
Given:
Present age of Anil = 14 years
Present age of Sunil = 10 years
Let :
After x years ,
The ratio of their ages will become 5 : 4
So ,
Anil's age = ( 14 + x ) years
Sunil's age = ( 10 + x ) years
According to the question:
➢ ( 14 + x ) / ( 10 + x ) = 5 : 4
➢ 4 ( 14 + x ) = 5 ( 10 + x )
➢ 56 + 4x = 50 + 5x
➢ 56 - 50 = 5x - 4x
➢ 6 = x
➢ x = 6
