1.	The Ratio Of The Ages Of Swati And Varun Is 2 : 5, After 8 Years, Their Ages Will Be In The Ratio Of 1 : 2. The Difference In Their Present Ages (in Years) Is?
Answer» Let SWATI's AGE = 2X and VARUN's age = 5X (2X + 8)/(5X + 8) = 1/2 => X = 8 Swati's age = 16 years and Varun's age = 40 years Difference of their ages = 24 years. Let Swati's age = 2X and Varun's age = 5X (2X + 8)/(5X + 8) = 1/2 => X = 8 Swati's age = 16 years and Varun's age = 40 years Difference of their ages = 24 years.

Answer»

Let SWATI's AGE = 2X and VARUN's age = 5X

(2X + 8)/(5X + 8) = 1/2 => X = 8

Swati's age = 16 years

and Varun's age = 40 years

Difference of their ages = 24 years.

Let Swati's age = 2X and Varun's age = 5X

(2X + 8)/(5X + 8) = 1/2 => X = 8

Swati's age = 16 years

and Varun's age = 40 years

Difference of their ages = 24 years.
