Question

The present ages of sagar and Rahul are in the ratio of 2:3 . Five years from now the sum of their ages will be 55 . Find their ages

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let present age of Sagar be 2x years

Let present age of Rahul be 3x years

Age five years later ,

(2x+5) + (3x+5) =55

2x+5+3x+5 =55

5x + 10 = 55

5x= 45

X=9

Age of Sagar = 18 years

Age of Rahul = 27 years
