Correct Question:

The ratio of Daughter's age and age of her mother is 3 : 11. The difference of their ages is 24 years. The ratio of their ages after 3 yeras will be ?

Answer:

The ratio of ages is 1 : 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ratio of their ages = 3 : 11

Difference between their ages = 24 years

To find :

Ratio of ages after 3 years

Solution :

Let the present ages be -

  • Daughter as 3y
  • Mother as 11y

⇒ 11y - 3y = 24

⇒ 8y = 24

⇒ y = 24/8

⇒ y = 3

\rule{300}{1.5}

Daughter's age -

⇒ 3(3)

⇒ 9 years

\rule{300}{1.5}

Mother's age -

⇒ 11(3)

⇒ 33 years

\rule{300}{1.5}

Ages after 3 years -

⇒ 9 + 3 = 12 years (Daughter)

⇒ 33 + 3 = 36 years (Mother)

\rule{300}{1.5}

Ratio of ages -

⇒ 12/36

⇒ 1/3

⇒ 1 : 3

Therefore, the ratio of ages is 1 : 3.

As corrected in the above answer the question follows as :

The ratio of the age to the age of

Daughter and mother is 3 : 11 and the difference of their ages is 24 years . what will be the ratio of their ages after 3 years​ ?

______________________

Given :

Ratio of ages of daughter and mother is 3 : 11

Let daughters age be denoted as " 3a "

Let mothers age be denoted as "11a"

As per the question , the difference between their ages is 24

11a - 3a = 24

8a = 24

a = 24 /8

a = 3

========================

So therefore

Daughters age is : 3a = 3 × 3 = 9

Mothers age is : 11a = 11 × 3 = 33

-----------------------------------

After 3 years :

Daughters age : 9 + 3 = 12

Mothers age : 33 + 3 = 36

Their ratio =

12: 36

2 : 6

1 : 3

=> Finally the answer is 1 : 3

Glad if helped..!!
