The ratio of present ages of Sheetal and Divya is 6 : 5. After 8 years, their ages will be in the ratio of 22 : 19. What is the present age (in years) of Divya?1). 222). 383). 344). 30

Answer»

Let present age of sheetal and Divya be 6x and 5x respectively

After 8 years,

⇒ Sheetal’s age = 6x + 8

⇒ Divya’s age = 5x + 8

According to QUESTION,

⇒ (6x + 8) / (5x + 8) = 22/19

⇒ 114x + 152 = 110x + 176

⇒ 4x = 24

⇒ x = 6

∴ present age of Divya = 5x = 5 × 6 = 30
