ram is half his fathers age now. ten years ago he was one third his fathers age then what are their present ages

x   -  Ram's age now

Ram is half his father's age now, so his father's age is two times Ram's age:

2x  - Ram's father age now

x - 10   -  Ram's age ten years ago

2x - 10    - Ram's father age ten years ago

ten years ago he was one third his father's age so his father's age was three times Ram's age:

2x - 10 = 3•(x - 10)

2x - 10 = 3x - 30

-10 + 30 = 3x - 2x

20 = x

2x = 2•20 = 40

Ram is 20 years old now, Ram's father is 40 years old now.

step-by-step explanation:

a cube has 6 sides

the probability of getting 5 on the first cube is 1/6 since only one side of the cube has 5 on it.

there are 3 sides of the cube with even number on it [2,4,6]

therefore the probability of getting even number is 3/6

for both events to happen together, the probability would be

1/6 x 3/6 = 12/36

which simplifies to 1/12
