Question

the present ages of sonu and seema are in the ratio 4:5. eight years from now the ratio of their ages will be 5:6. find their present ages.

Answer 1

let their ages be 4x and 5x
ATQ
4x + 8 / 5x + 8 = 5/6
➡️ 6(4x+8) = 5(5x+8)
➡️ 24x + 48 = 25x + 40
➡️ x = 48-40
➡️ x = 8
So, thier present ages are 32 and 40

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of present ages = 4:5

let ages be 4x and 5x

APQ

4x+8/5x+8 = 5/6

24x+48 = 25x +40

8 = x

present ages are =4(8) and 5(8)

present ages are = 32 and 40
