​

Answer 1

Answer:
8:7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :The age of A and B are in the ratio 6:5 and sum of their ages​ is 44 years​.
To Find: what will be the ratio of their ages after 8 year?
Solution:
Since the ratio of ages of A and B is 6:5
Let ages be A= 6x and B=5x
Now we are also given that the sum of their ages is 44
So, 6x+5x=44
11x =44
x=44/11=4
Thus age of A = 6x= 6*4 =24 years
Age of B = 5x=5*4 =20 years
Thus the age after 8 years will be :
Age of A = 24+8 =32
Age of B= 20+8 =28
Thus the ratio of their ages after 8 years = =
Hence the ratio of their ages after 8 year is 8:7

Answer 2

Explanation:

6x + 5x = 44

=) 11x = 44

=) x = 44/11

=) x = 4

Their ages after 8 years:-

laksmi = 6(4) + 8

= 24 + 8

= 32

ramya = 5(4) + 8

= 20 + 8

= 28

ratio = 32/28

= 8/7

= 8:7
