The ratio of present ages of A, B, C, and D 6 : 8 : 11 : 15 sum of their ages four years before was 64 years then what is the difference of present ages of the sum of B and D to the present ages of C and A.
The ratio of present ages of A, B, C, and D 6 : 8 : 11 : 15 sum of their ages four years before was 64 years then what is the difference of present ages of the sum of B and D to the present ages of C and A. Correct Answer 4
The ratio of present ages of A, B, C, and D = 6 : 8 : 11 : 15
Sum of their ages = 6x + 8x + 11x + 15x
⇒ 40x
Before 4 years sum of their ages = 64
40x - 16 = 64
⇒ 40x = 80 ⇒ x = 2
Sum of ages of B and D = 19x ⇒ 19 × 2 = 38
Sum o the ages of C and A = 17x ⇒ 17 × 2 = 34
∴ The difference of present ages of the sum of B and D to the present ages of C and A = 38 - 34
⇒ 4 years
∴ The difference in ages is 4 years
