    Solution

    ATQ, Let the present age тАШChinuтАЩ and тАШDikshaтАЩ be тАШ4cтАЩ years and тАШ5cтАЩ years, respectively. So, present age of тАШBipasaтАЩ = 5c ├Ч 0.55 = тАШ2.75cтАЩ years Present age of тАШAraviтАЩ = (4c + 4)/2 = (2c + 2) years According to question: 2c + 2 + 2.75c + 4c = 24 ├Ч 3 Or, 8.75c = 70 c = 8 Present age of Diksha = 5 ├Ч 8 = 40 years
