Question

the ratio of the present ages of yhe boy and a girl is 5:4. 4 years back the boy was 24 years old.What will be the age of the girl after 5 years later? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

present ratio = 5:4 ,let constant ratio = x

Step-by-step explanation:

age of boy 4 years ago = 24

5x - 4 = 24 => x = 28/5

age of girl after 5 years

4x + 5 = 4(28/5) + 5 = 137/5

= 27.4 yrs = 27 + 4/10*12

= 27 yrs 4.8 months
