The ratio of ages of A, B and C is 2: 4: 5 and sum of their ages is 77. Find the ratio of A's age to B's age ten years hence.
A10: 17
B13 : 18
C12: 19
D11: 14
Answer:
C. 12: 19
Read Explanation:
Let the ratio of ages of A, B and C is be 2x, 4x and 5x respectively.
2x + 4x + 5x = 77
11x =77
x=7
10 years hence age of A = 2 x 7 + 10 = 14 + 10 = 24
10 years hence age of B = 4 * 7 + 10 = 28 + 10 = 38
Ratio of ages of A to B 10 years hence = 24:38
= 12:19
