Question

The ratio of age of three sisters is 2:3:4 and sum of their ages is 63

Answer 1

$\bold{ \mathbf{ \underline{Let \: the \: ages \: are \: 2x , 3x \: and \: 4x }}} \:$




Given that the sum of ages of these three sisters is 63

So,

2x + 3x + 4x = 63

9x = 63

$x = \frac{63}{9}$

x = 7





Hence,
Present ages of the sisters are

2x = 2( 7 ) = 14
3x = 3( 7 ) = 21
5x = 5( 7 ) = 35

Answer 2

Ratio of age of sisters= 2:3:4

Sum of ages = 63..

Let age of sisters be 2x 3x 4x..

sum of ages= 2x + 3x + 4x = 63

9x = 63

x = 63/9 = 7

Age of 3 sisters = 2x , 3x ,4x

= 2(7) ,3(7) , 4(7)

=14,21,28
