When Rajesh's age was same as the present age of Garima, the ratio of their ages was 3 : 2. When Garima's age becomes the same as the present age of Rajesh, the ratio of the ages of Rajesh and Garima will become

Question

Accepted Answer

Let the ages of Rajesh and Garima be **R** and **G**, respectively.

From the given ratio, we can see that Rajesh is older than Garima, so let’s take **R = G + x**.

When Rajesh was of age **G**, which was **x** years ago, Garima was of **G - x** years old.

Giving the ratio as:

$$\frac{G}{G - x} = \frac{3}{2}$$

This gives us **G = 3x**, which in turn gives **R = 4x**.

We are asked to find the ratio when Garima becomes **4x** years old. By that time, Rajesh will be **5x** years old.

Therefore, their ratio is:

$$\frac{5x}{4x} = 5 : 4$$
