Question

the ratio of abha and her mother is 2:3. At the time of abha's birth her mother age was 27 years. Find the present ages of abha and her mother

Answer 1

Answer: 54 and 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of abha be 'x'

and her mother's present age = x + 27

Ratio of abha's and her mother's age = 2 : 3

x/(x+27) = 2/3

3x = 2(x+27)

3x = 2x + 54

x = 54

Present age of Abha = 54

Her mother's present age = 54+27 = 81

Answer 2

Hii...

ratio=2:3

let the common multiple be x

abha=2x
mother=3x

at the time of birth of abha mother age was 27..
hence the age of abha was 0

its mean the difference between their ages is 27..

so,

3x-2x=27

x=27

present ages:

abha=2x=54
mother=3x=81
