Present age of Ram = 2a

Present age of Sanjay = 3a

⇒PresentageofRam+8PresentageofSanjay+8=67

⇒2a+83a+8=67

⇒ (2a + 8) × 7 = (3a + 8) × 6

⇒ 14a + 56 = 18a + 48

⇒ 18a – 14a = 56 – 48

⇒ 4a = 8 ⇒ a = 2

∴ Present age of Ram = 2 × 2 = 4 years

Slove it bt equation method,

2x + 5 / 3x + 5 = 6 / 7

(2x + 5) 7 = (3x + 5) 6

14x + 35 = 18x + 30 4x = 5 X = 5/4

So ram's present age is 2 * 5/4

Ram : 2x Sanjay : 3x After 5years Ram : 2x + 5 Sanjay : 3x + 5 As per question

2x + 5 / 3x + 5 =6 / 7

14x + 35 = 18x + 30 35 — 30 = 18x — 14x 4x = 5 X=5/4

Ram present age : 2 * 5/4 = 5/2 = 2.5

Verification:

Sanjay : 3 * 5/4 = 15 / 4 = 3.75

(5/2)/(15/4)=(5/2)*(4/15)=2/3.

(7.5/8.75)=750/875 = 30/35 =6/7

Let the ages of Ram and Sanjay be, x and y, respectively.

Then, x/y = 2/3 and

(x + 5)/(y + 5) = 6/7

Solving we get, 7x + 35 = 6y + 30 Substituting for x,

7 * 2/3 y — 6y = 30 — 35

— 4/3 y = — 5 y = 15/4 yrs.

x = 15/4 * 2/3 = 10/4 yrs.
