Question

the ratio of meens's age to the age of her mother is 3:8. The difference of their ages is 35. what will be the ratio of their ages after 4 years?

Answer 1

Let present age of meen's and her mother be 3X and 8X respectively.





Difference of their ages = 35


8X - 3X = 35


5X = 35


X = 7



Present age of mother = 8X = 56 years.

And,

Present age of Meen's = 3X = 21 years.



After 4 years age of Meen's = Present age+ 4 = 21 + 4 = 25 years.


After 4 years age of her mother = Present age + 4 = 56 + 4 = 60 years.


Ratio of their ages after 4 years = 25:60 = 5:12.

Answer 2

Hey dude!!

Here's the correct answer

_______________________

The ratio of Meens's age and her mother's age is 3:8

Suppose , Meens's age is 3x and her mother's 8x

Now acc to the question ,

8x - 3x = 35

5x = 35

x = 35 / 5

x = 7

So , the age of Meens's is ( 3x ) = 3 × 7 = 21

And her mother's age is ( 8x ) = 8 × 7 = 56

Now , after 4 years,

The age of Meens's will be ( 21 + 4 ) = 25

And her mother's age will be ( 56 + 4 ) = 60

And the ratio will be 25 : 60 = 5 : 12
