Question
6 years ago, the ratio of the ages of A and B was 2:3
and after 5 years it will become 5:7. Find their present ages.Solution
6 years ago, Let the ratio of ages of A and B = 2x:3x According to the question, => (2x + 11)/(3x + 11) = 5/7 => 14x + 77 = 15x + 55 => x = 22 Present age of A = 2x + 6 = 50 years Present age of B = 3x + 6 = 72 years
