1. This document contains 11 math word problems involving ratios and proportions of ages. The problems require calculating ages based on given ratios, determining ratios based on changes over time, and relating multiple people's ages. 2. The word problems cover a range of concepts including comparing present and past ages, determining ages when ratios change, relating one person's age to another's, and setting up and solving equations from verbal descriptions. 3. Solving these problems systematically using ratios, proportions, and algebraic equations allows determining the necessary values and relationships between ages described in each scenario.

AGES 6. A boy was asked of his age by his friend.


1. The ratio of the persent ages of A and B is The boy said, „The number you get when
8 : 9. After 9 years, this will become 19 : you subtract 25 times my age from twice
21. C is 3 years younger to B. What is the the square of my age will be thrice your
present age (in years) of C? age.‟ If the friend‟s age is 14, then the age
(a) 49 (b) 48 of the boy is :
(c) 51 (d) 52 (a) 28 years (b) 21 years
2. The ratio of the present ages of A and B is (c) 14 years (d) 25 years
6:5. Four Years ago, this ratio was 5:4. 7. A says, “If you reverse my own age, the
What will be the ratio of the ages of A and figures represent my Brother‟s age. He is,
B after 12 Years from now? of course, senior to me and the difference
(a) 3:2 (b) 8:7 between our ages is one-eleventh of their
(c) 9:8 (d) 7:6 sum.” Then A‟s brother‟s age is?
3. The present age of two persons are 36 and (a) 45 (b) 54
50 years respectively. If after n years the (c) 25 (d) 52
ratio of their age will be 3 : 4, then the 8. The sum of present ages of Ria and Abby is
value of n is : 48 years. Today Abby is 4 years older than
(a) 4 (b) 7 Shweta. The respective ratio of the present
(c) 6 (d) 3 ages of Ria and Shweta is 4 : 7. What was
4. The sum of the age of a father and his son Abby‟s age two years ago?
is 100 years now. 5 years ago their age (a) 32 years (b) 30 years
were in the ratio of 2 : 1. The ratio of the (c) 28 yeas (d) 34 years
age of father and son after 10 years will be : 9. If 10 : 13 is the ratio of present age of A
(a) 5 : 3 (b) 4 : 3 and B respectively and 8:15 is the ratio
(c) 10 : 7 (d) 3 : 5 between A‟s age 10 years ago and B‟s age
5. Ratio of the ages of A and B is 5 : x. A is 10 years hence. Then what will be the ratio
18 years younger to C. After nine years C of A‟s age 10 years hence and B‟s age 10
will be 47 years old. If the difference years ago?
between the ages of A and B is same as the (a) 12 : 11 (b) 12 : 15
age of C, what is the value of x? (c) 8 : 11 (d) 6 : 8
(a) 13 (b) 12 10. Meena married 10 years ago. Today her age
(c) 14.5 (d) 13.25 is 7/5 times her age at the time of her
2
marriage. Her daughter age is 1/5 of her
age. What is the ratio of Meena‟s age to her
daughter age after 5 years?
(a) 10 : 3 (b) 10 : 13
(c) 8 : 11 (d) 5 : 9
11. The sum of the present ages of a father and
his son is 99years. When the father was as
old as he is now, his age was four times the
age of the son at that time. The ratio of the
present ages of the son and the father is :
(a) 4 : 7 (b) 3 : 8
