The ratio of present age of grandfather, father, mother and son is 26:15:11:7. Before 10 years, the ratio of age of grandfather and son was 13:3. what will be the average of the age of father and mother after 10 years?
The respective ratio of the present age of grandfather, father, mother and son is 26 : 15 : 11 : 7.
The ratio of the present age of grandfather and son = 26 : 7
Let us assume it 26x and 7x
According to the question,
26x – 10/7x - 10 = 13/3
By solving, x = 100/13
The age of father + mother = 15x + 11x = 26x = 26 × 100 / 13 = 200
After 10 years, the sum of their age = 200 + 20 = 220 years
Average = 220/2 = 110 years.
Hope it helps.
