  • Question
  • The ratio of ages of Namrata and Divya is 4 : 3. The sum of their ages is 28 years. The ratio of their ages after 4 years will be:


  • Options
  • A. 3 : 4
  • B. 5 : 4
  • C. 5 : 6
  • D. 6 : 5

  • Correct Answer
  • 5 : 4 

    Explanation

    Let the present ages of Namrata and Divya are 4x and 3x years respectively; then
    According to question,
    4x + 3x = 28
    ? x = 4
    Hence, their present ages are 16 and 12 years.
    So required ratio = (16 +4) : (12 + 4) = 20 : 16 = 5 :4
