Question

A's age is $50$ more than that of B. What is the ratio of A's age to B's age? (Let's take B's age as $x$)

• A. $(x+50):x$
• B. $x:(x+50)$
• C. $50x:x$
• D. $x:50x$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $(x+50):x$

Let the age of B be $x$.
Then, the age of A will be $(x+50)$.

So, the ratio A's age to B's age will be $\frac{x+50}{x}$.
