2. Present
ages of Sameer and Anand are in the ratio of 5 : 4 respectively. Three years
hence, the
ratio
of their ages will become 11 : 9 respectively. What is Anand's present age in
years ?
A. 24 B.
27
C. 40. D. cannot be determined
Answer: A
Let
the present ages of sameer and anand be 5x years and 4x years respectively.
Then 5x+3/4x+3=11/9
≈9(5x+3)=11(4x+3)
x=6.
Anands's
present age = 4x
=24
years.
