Present age of Vikas and Raman are in the ratio of 6 : 5 respectively. If the present age of Rohan is 98 years and the present age of Vikas is 3/7 of the the present age of Rohan, then after how many years the ages of Vikas and Raman would be in the ratio of 7 : 6?

Present age of Vikas and Raman are in the ratio of 6 : 5 respectively. If the present age of Rohan is 98 years and the present age of Vikas is 3/7 of the the present age of Rohan, then after how many years the ages of Vikas and Raman would be in the ratio of 7 : 6? Correct Answer 7

1) The present age of Rohan is 98 years and the present age of Vikas is 3/7 of the present age of Rohan

Vikas age = 3/7 (98)

= 42 years

2) The present age of Vikas and Raman are in the ratio of 6 : 5

6x = 42

X = 7

Therefore Raman present age will be 5x = 5 × 7 = 35 years.

Vikas : Raman age after some years will be 7 : 6

Vikas : Raman = 42 : 35

42 + x / 35 + x = 7 / 6

X = 7.

Hence after 7 years, the ratio of Vikas and Raman will be in ratio 7 : 6.
