Answer» Let the age of Sita and her sister be 3x and 8x respectively. After 12 years, Sita's age = 3x + 12 and her sister's age = 8x + 12 A/Q, 3x + 12 / 8x + 12 = 7 /12 36x + 144 = 56x + 84 60 = 20x x = 3, Sita's age = 3x = 9 years Sister's age = 8x = 24 years. Therefore, the ages of Sita and her sister are 9 and 24 years respectively. |
