Answer» Ratio of their age = Vimla : Sarita = 7 : 5 Define their current age: Let x be the constant ratio: Vimla = 7x Sarita = 5x Define their age 4 years later: Vimla = 7x + 4 Sarita = 5x + 4 Form equation and solve for x 4 years later, their ratio is : Vimla : Sarita = 4 : 3 3(7x + 4)= 4(5x + 4) 21x + 12 = 20x + 16 x = 4 Find their age: Vimla = 7x = 7(4) = 28 Sarita = 5x = 5(4) = 20 Answer: Vimla is 28 and Sarita is 20 please like the solution 👍 ✔️ |
