The ratio between the ages of A and B is 3 : 5 and the sum of their ages is 56 yr. The ratio between their ages 7 yr ago was
-
- 3 : 4
- 3 : 5
- 1 : 2
- 2 : 3
Correct Option: C
Age of A = (3/8) x 56 = 21 yr
Age of B = (5/8) x 56 = 35 yr
Before 7yr, ration of the ages of A and B
= (21 - 7) : (35 - 7)
= 14 : 28
= 1 : 2
