Sagot :

Ann and Bob's age is 21 years  and 28 years respectively and after 14 years the ratio will be 5:6.

What is Ratio ?

The comparison of one quantity to other is called a ratio and when two ratios are equal they are said to be in proportion.

It is given in the question that

The ratio of Ann's age to bob's age is 3:4

in 7 years time this ratio will be 4:5

their ages now = ?

Let the age of Ann and Bob is x and y

x:y = 3:4

x =(3/4)y

After seven years

(x+7):(y+7) = 4 :5

(x+7)/(y+7) = 4/5

((3/4)y +7)/(y+7) = 4/5

(3y +28)/(y+7) = 16/5

5*(3y+28)= 16(y+7)

15y +140 = 16y+112

y = 140-112

y =28 years

x = 21 years.

After x years suppose the ratio is 5 :6

(21+x)/(28+x) = 5:6

126 +6x = 140 + 5x

x = 14 years.

Therefore after 14 years the ratio will be 5:6.
