Answer:

Presently; Veeru is 15 and Neeru is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See comment for proper format of question

Let their present ages be x and y

So:

x : y = 3 : 4

5 years time, the ratio will be:

x + 5: y  + 5= 4 : 5

Required

Their present ages

Express both ratios as fractions

x : y = 3 : 4 becomes

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{4}

and

x + 5: y  + 5= 4 : 5 becomes

\frac{x+5}{y+5} = \frac{4}{5}

Make x the subject in: \frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{4}

x = \frac{3}{4}y

x = 0.75y

Cross multiply in \frac{x+5}{y+5} = \frac{4}{5}

5(x + 5) = 4(y + 5)

Substitute x = 0.75y

5(0.75y + 5) = 4(y + 5)

Open brackets

3.75y + 25 = 4y + 20

Collect like terms

3.75y -4y = -25 + 20

-0.25y = -5

Divide by -0.25

y = 20

Substitute y = 20 in x = 0.75y

x = 0.75 * 20

x = 15
