Question 1
In a family, Lucy : Yara = 8:4 and Yara : Vinay = 3:1. The sum of their ages is 80. Find Yara's age.
Let common ratio for Yara be 12
Then Lucy:Yara:Vinay = 24:12:4
Sum of ratios = 40
Each unit = 80 ÷ 40 = 2
Yara's age = 12 × 2 = 24
Then Lucy:Yara:Vinay = 24:12:4
Sum of ratios = 40
Each unit = 80 ÷ 40 = 2
Yara's age = 12 × 2 = 24
