Rahi is 19 years younger than his cousin. After five years, their ages will be in the ratio 2:3. Find their present ages.

Answer»

ANSWER:

Lets TAKE Rahi cousin's age be x yrs

Therefore Raju 's age = x - 19

Ratio between Raju and his cousin = 2 : 3 or 2/3

Hence (x - 19) + 5/x + 5 = 2/3

= 5 + x - 5 + 19/x + 5 = 2/3

= 5 + x - 14/x + 5 = 2/3

= 15 + 3X - 42/2x + 10

= - 37 + 3x = 2x+10

= - 37 - 10 = 2x - 3x

= - 47 = - x

= 47 = x = His cousin age after 5 yrs=47 + 5 = 52yrs

= His age = 52 - 19 =  33yrs
