Answer 1

Answer:

44kg

current weight ratio

Aditya : Ramkrishna

6x : 13x

after dieting of Ramkrishna new weight ratio

Aditya : Ramkrishna

6x : 11x

means in ratio Ramkrishna loss 2x weight

{ how he lost ? ans is first he was 13x and now he is 11x means he lost 13x - 11x = 2x}

and in real he loss 8 kg

it's mean

2 x = 8 kg

x = 8÷2

X = 4

Ramkrishna weight in ratio is 11X putting value of X in 11X

Ramkrishna weight 11×4 = 44 kg
