Question

What will be the ratio of the ages after 5 years?
Rina lost her weights inn the ratio 5:3. Her original wights was 80 kg. What is her new weight.

Answer 1

Reena's weight $=80kg$

Let her reduced weight $=x$

Ratio of weight $=5:3$ (given)

$\therefore 80:x=5:3$

product of means $=$ Product of extremes

$x\times 5=80\times 3$

$x=\frac{80\times 3}{5}$

$x=48$

Here, new reduced weight $=x=48kg$.
