The ratio of the present ages of Giri and Hari is 5 : 8. 12 years hence, the ratio of their ages will be 11 : 14. Find the difference in their present ages?

Answer»

5 years



Let the present ages of GIRI and Hari be 5x and 8X years respectively.

(5x + 12) / (8x + 12) = 11/14

70x + 168 = 88x + 132 => x= 2

DIFFERENCE in their ages will be the same at all times.

This difference = Difference of their present ages

= 8x - 5x = 3x = 6 years.
