The ratio of the present ages of Akanksha and Netra is 2 : 1. 8 years hence, Netra would be as old as Akanksha is now. Find the present ages (in years) of Netra and Akanksha respectively.
Explanation:
Given that, the ratio of the ages of Akanksha and Netra is 2 : 1.
Let their ages be 2x and x.
After 8 years Netra's age is equal to the present age of Akanksha.
So, x + 8 = 2x
⇒ x = 8.
Ages of Netra and Akanksha are 8 and 16 years respectively.
Hence, option (a).
