Question

the present ages of two children are in the ratio 2 ratio 3 5 years age the ratio of their ages was 1 ratio 2 find their present ages​

Answer 1

Answer:

10,15 are their present ages

Answer 2

Answer:

let the present age of 1st child be x

and the age of 2nd child be y

therfore atq

x÷y= 2÷3

therefore 3x=2y

x=2y/3 eq.1

and

also

x-5/y-5=1/2

therefore

x=y+5/2 eq.2

equate 1 and 2

2y/3=y+5/2

therefore y=5

by substituting the value of y in equation 2

we will get x=hence age of both children =5 yrs.
