The ratio of the present ages of A and B is 7 : 11. After 10 years the ratio of their ages will be 13 : 19 then, find the present age of B.
52 years
76 years
66 years
42 years
None of these
To find the present age of B, follow these steps:
- Let the present ages of A and B be 7x and 11x respectively.
- After 10 years, A's age will be 7x + 10 and B's age will be 11x + 10.
- According to the problem, after 10 years the ratio of their ages will be 13 : 19.
So, we set up the equation:
$$
\frac{7x + 10}{11x + 10} = \frac{13}{19}
- Cross-multiply to solve for x:
19(7x + 10) = 13(11x + 10)
- Simplifying the equation:
133x + 190 = 143x + 130
- Rearrange to find x:
143x - 133x = 190 - 130
10x = 60
x = 6
- Now, the present age of B is 11x = 11 * 6 = 66 years.
- Check the options:
- ? Option 3: 66 years – This matches the calculation.
- Option 1, 2, 4 don't match the calculation.
- Option 5 is for if none of these is correct.
Therefore, the correct option is Option 3: 66 years.
