the ratio of the ages of aunt agatha and uncle roger is 5:6,the same as the ratio of the ages of thier or their children,suzaman and beard.if the the sum of the ages of suzanne and aunt agatha,five years ago,was 60,what will be the sum of the ages of bernard and uncle roger five years hence?

• ans is 94
  
  Aunt/uncle=5/6 Suzaan/beard=5/6
  so aunt+suzaan=5x+5y
  Before 5 years= 5(x+y)-10=60 x+y=14
  again,
  After 5 yrs, uncle+beard=
  6(x+y)+5+5= 6(14)+10= 94..

• aunt:unc=5:6=ch1:ch2
  aunt+ch1=60+5+5=70
  ratios are equal so that 70/5=14
  14*6=84
  after 5years=94

• aunt:uncle=5:6
  5x:6y
  suzan:beard=5:6
  5x:6y
  so the sum of suzan and aunt will be before 5 yr:
  6x+6y-5=60
  x+y=13
  so the sum of ages of bernard and uncle is:
  6(x+y)->6*13->78
  after 5 yrs:78+5=83
• 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(13)
• ANS: 83
  
  A : R S : B
  5x: 6x 5y:6y
  
  Aunty=>5x+5y-5=60
  
  5(x+y-1)=60
  
  x+y-1=12
  
  x+y=13
  
  uncle=>6x+6y+5=?
  
  =6(x+y)+5
  
  =6(13)+5
  
  =78+5
  
  =83

• ans is 83
• 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(14)
• 5 years ago a:r=5:6
  s:b=5:6
  5x+5y=60+10=70
  x+y=14
  5 years ago r+b=6*14=84
  5 hence=84+20=104

• aunt =5x,uncle=6x,suzaman=5y,beard=6y.
  5x+5y-10=60
  x+y=14
  6(x+y)=84
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
• According to the question,
  Aunt/uncle=5x/6x and Suzanne/beard = 5y/6y.
  So, Aunt + Suzanne = 5x + 5y
  Before 5 years= 5(x + y) - 10 = 60x + y = 14.
  Again,
  After 5 years, uncle + beard = 6(x+y) + 5 + 5 = 6(14) + 10 = 94.

• given sum of ages is 60 five yrs ago so current would be 60+5=65 , so (65/x)=(5/6), this gives x=78, and five year hence is asked so 78+5=83... so 83 is required ans...
