- 24 years
Present ages of Sameer and Anand are in the ratio of 5 : 4 respectively.
If present ages of Sameer and Anand are in 5x and 4x respectively, then
(5x+3)/(4x+3) = 11/9
solving this , we get x= 6
hence age of Anand is 4*6= 24 years. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(1)
- Present age of sammer =5x
present age of Anand=4x
after 3 years
sammer =5x+3
Anand=4x+3
5x+3=11
___________
4x=3 =9
x=6
Sammer=30
Anand=24 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
