Question 1
The ratio of Hitesh's age to Eleanor's age is 1:6. After 10 years, the ratio will become 1:5. Find Hitesh's present age.
Let Hitesh = 1k, Eleanor = 6k
After 10 years: (1k+10)/(6k+10) = 1/5
Solving gives k = 12, so Hitesh = 12
After 10 years: (1k+10)/(6k+10) = 1/5
Solving gives k = 12, so Hitesh = 12
