The sum of present ages of a mother and daughter is 99 years. When the mother was as old as the present age of daughter is now, her age was 4 times to the age of her daughter at that time. The ratio of present age of mother and daughter is? |
4 : 7 7 : 4 3 : 5 8 : 5 |
7 : 4 |
Mother : Daughter Present: x : y
Before* y : 2y - x *(when mother was as old as her daughter is now)
Now, ATQ, ⇒ y = 4 ( 2y - x ) ⇒ 4x = 7y ⇒ x : y = 7 : 4 |
