Question
6 years ago ratio of the ages of the two persons A and B
was 5:3. 3 years hence the ratio of their ages will be 4:3. Find the present age of B.Solution
6 years ago, Let A’s age be 5x and B’s age be 3x. According to the question, 3 years hence, => (5x + 9)/(3x + 9) = 4/3 => 15x + 27 = 12x + 27 => x = 3 Present age of B = 3x + 6 = 3 × 3 + 6 = 15 years
