Question
The ratio of the present ages of P and Q is 6:5
respectively. If the age of P 12 years hence from now will be 125% more than the age of Q 4 years ago from now, then find the age of P 2 years ago from now.Solution
Let the present ages of P and Q be 6x and 5x years respectively. According to the question, => 6x + 12 = 2.25(5x – 4) => 6x + 12 = 11.25x - 9 => 5.25x = 21 => x = 4 Required age = 6x – 2 = 22 years
