Question

the present ages of husband and wife are in the ratio 4:3.thirty years later, the husband will be 10 years older to her.what are their present ages

Answer 1

Let 4x and 3x be ages of Husband and wife respectively

30 years later

age will be 4x+30 and 3x+30

according to the question the age of husband is 10 years more than wife's age

so 4x+30 : 3x+30+10

so x= 10

Age Of Husband At Present = 4x = 4*10 = 40

Age Of Wife At Present = 3x = 3*10 = 30
