The present ages of Anuj and Deepak are in the ratio of 7:4 respectively. After 10 years their ages will be in the ratio of 4:3. What is the present age of Deepak?
Given:
Ratio of present ages of Anuj and Deepak = 7 : 4
Ratio of their ages after 10 years = 4 : 3
Solution:
Let the present ages of Anuj and Deepak be 7x and 4x.
After 10 years, their ages will be 7x + 10 and 4x + 10.
3(7x + 10) = 4(4x + 10)
21x + 30 = 16x + 40
21x - 16x = 40 - 30
5x = 10
x = 2
Deepak's present age = 4x
4 × 2 = 8
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (b)
