⇒ x + 25 = 2y - 50

⇒ x - 2y = -75                    - - - - - - - equation 2

From equation 1 and equation 2, we get

⇒ Equation 1 - Equation 2, we get y = 105

Substitute y = 105 in equation 1, we get

Detailed Solution for RRB NTPC Mock Test - 8 (English) - Question 30

Given, 11.11% of Aditi’s age = 66.67% of Farah’s age

⇒ 1/9 × Aditi’s age = 2/3 × Farah’s age

⇒ Aditi’s age = 9 × 2/3 × Farah’s age

⇒ Aditi’s age = 6 × Farah’s age       ----(1)

Also, 60% of Farah’s age = 20% of Sana’s age

⇒ 3/5 × Farah’s age = 1/5 × Sana’s age

⇒ Sana’s age = 5 × 3/5 × Farah’s age

⇒ Sana’s age = 3 × Farah’s age      ----(2)

Dividing (1) by (2), we get,

⇒ Aditi’s age/Sana’s age = 6/3 = 2

∴ Ages of Aditi and Sana is in the ratio 2 ∶ 1
