Question
The present age of P is 40% more than that of Q, and the
ratio of Q’s age to R’s age is 3:5. Find Q’s age 6 years ago if the oldest among them is 90 years old.Solution
ATQ, The ratio of age of P to Q = 140:100 = 7:5 Let the present age of P = 7x And the present age of Q = 5x And the present age of R = 5x × 5/3 = (25/3)x Since R is the eldest, (25/3)x = 90 x = 90 × 3/25 x = 270/25 x = 10.8 Age of Q = 5x = 5 × 10.8 = 54 Therefore, Q’s age 6 years ago = 54 – 6 = 48 years
