Answer 1

Answer :-

The present age of Maya after 10 years is 24 years.

Step-by-step explanation

To Find :-

• The present age of Maya after 10 years.

★ Solution -

Given that,

The ages of Maya and Diya are in the ratio = 1:2.

The present age of Maya = 28 years

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ□ Assumption

Let us assume the ages of Maya and Diya which are in the ratio of 1:2 as 1x and 2x.

Finding the value of x :-

→ 2x = 28

→ x = 28/2

→ x = 14

We got, The value of x is 14.

Now, The age of Maya after 10 years is :-

Age of Maya = 1x .. .. .. Given

∴ Age of Maya after 10 years,

• (1x + 10) years

→ 1x + 10

→ 1*14 + 10

→ 14 + 10

→ 24 years

Hence, The age of Maya after 10 years is 24 years.
