Sameer and Anand are currently 5 and 4 years old, respectively. In three years, their ages will have shifted to 11:9, respectively. What is Anand's current year of birth?
A. 24 B. 27 C. 40 D.Cannot be determined
Explanation: Let Sameer and Anand's current ages be 5x and 4x years, respectively.After that, 5x + 3/4x + 3 = 11/9.11(4x + 3) = 9(5x + 3).44x + 33 = 45x + 27.45x minus 44x equals 33 minus 27.x equals 6.Anand's current age is 4x = 24.
