14 |
ratio of → Radha : Saloni 2 : 3 Let the present age Radha = 2x & present age of Saloni = 3x After 7 years , According to question , ratio of → Radha : Saloni 3 : 4 \(\frac{2x\;+\;7}{3x\;+\;7}\) = \(\frac{3}{4}\) 8x + 28 = 9x + 21 x = 7 present age Saloni = 3x age of Saloni = 3 × 7 = 21 Radha is 7 years younger than Saloni . Then, age of Radha = 21 - 7 = 14 |
