Question
The ratio of present ages of Ankit to that of Bhavesh is
3:5 while the ratio of present ages of Karan to that of Bhavesh is 2:5. If the age of Karan, 5 years ago from now was 15 years, then find the sum of present ages of Ankit and Bhavesh.Solution
ATQ,
Let the present age of Ankit and Bhavesh be '3x' years and '5x' years, respectively.
So, present age of Karan = 2/5 × 5x = 2x years
Karan's present age = (15 + 5) = 20 years.
So, 2x = 20
Or, x = 10
Required sum = (3x + 5x) = (8x) = (8 × 10) = 80 years
