Question
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?
Answer: Option B
 - Let the present ages of Sameer and Anand be 5x years and 4x years respectively
Then, 5X + 3 = 11 9 (5X + 3) = 11 (4X + 3) X = 6 4X + 3 9
Anand's present age = 4X = 24 years
