The ratio of the ages of Minu and Meera is 4:2. If the sum of their ages is 6 years, find the ratio of their ages after 8 years.
If the ratio of ages of Minu and Meera is 4:2 and sum of their ages is 6, then ages of Minu and Meera is 4 and 2 respectively.
After 8 years, their individual ages will be 12 and 10 years respectively.
thus, the ratio will be 12 : 10 = 6:5.
The difference between the ages of two men is 10 years. 15 years ago, the elder one was twice as old as the younger one. The present age of the elder man is?
Let A and B be two men, and let A be older than B
15 years ago, A's age was twice that of B.
Let 15 years ago, B's age = x
$$\therefore$$ 15 years ago, A's age = 2x
Difference between ages = 2x - x = x = 10 (given)
Present age of A = 2x + 15 = 35 yrs
Hence, option A is the correct choice.
If 10 years are subtracted from the present age of Mr.Roy and the remainder divided by 14, then you would get the present age of his grandson Sachin. If Sachin is 9 years younger to Saloni whose age is 14 years, then what is the present age of Mr.Roy?
