Question
The current age ratio of Nilam to Raman is 3:1, and the
current age ratio of Fatima to Nilam is 5:2. If the combined present ages of Nilam, Raman, and Fatima add up to 138 years, what is Raman's current age?Solution
Let present ages of Nilam and Raman be 3x years and x years respectively.
So, present age of Fatima = 15x/2 years
The sum of present ages of Nilam, Raman and Fatima is 138 years.
=> 3x + x + 15x/2 = 138
=> 8x + 15x = 276
=> x = 12
So, Raman's present age = 12 years
