Question 57
The present ages of A and B are in the ratio 3 : 5. If A's present age is 33 years, then what will be B's age (in years) after 5 years?
Solution
The present ages of A and B are in the ratio 3 : 5.
Let's assume the present ages of A and B are 3y and 5y respectively.
If A's present age is 33 years.
A's present age = 3y = 33
y = 11
B's present age = 5y = $$5\times11$$ = 55 years
B's age (in years) after 5 years = (55+5) years = 60 years
