DIRECTIONS for the question:Solve the following question and mark the best possible option.
The ratio of the present ages of Anju and Sandhya is 13:17 respectively. Four years ago the respective ratio of their ages was 11 : 15. What will be the respective ratio of their ages six years hence?
A)
3 : 4
B)
7 : 8
C)
5 : 4
D)
6 : 5
E)
None of these
E
Let the present ages be A and S. So, A/S = 13/17, Ratio 4 years ago, (A-4)/(S-4) = 11/15, Solving we get A = 26 and S = 34. So after 6 years required ratio = (26+6)/(34+6) = 4/5.
