the ratio of present age of beena and meena is 2:3. after 2 year ,the sum of their age will be 29 year .find their present ages . "with solution plz"

Answer 1

Hi there !!
Here's your answer

Let the common factor be x

Beena's age = 2x years
Meena's age = 3x years

After 2 years , ages of
Beena = 2x + 2
Meena = 3x + 2

given that ,
after two years, their sum will be 29 years,

So,
the following balanced equation will be formed


$2x + 2 + 3x + 2 = 29$

$5x + 4 = 29$

$5x = 29 - 4$

$5x = 25$

$x = \frac{25}{5}$
x = 5

So,
Beena's age = 2x = 2 × 5= 10 years
Meena's age = 3x = 3 × 5 = 15 years
