Answer 1

hope it will help you

Answer 2

Let,

Aman's present age = 4x

Naman's present age = 5x

After 8 years,

Aman's age = 4x + 8

Naman's age = 5x + 8

Also, it is given that after 8 years,

Aman's age = 5x

Naman's age = 6x

•°•

4x + 8 = 5x

5x - 4x = 8

x = 8

Aman's present age = 4x = 4 ( 8 ) = 32 yrs

Naman's present age = 5x = 5 ( 8 ) = 40 yrs
