Sorry to disturb....need your help on the following questions.

Thank U.

1) Mark's current age is 1/4 of Ronald's. In 24 years' time, Ronald's age will be 14 years less than twice Mark's age. What is Ronald's age now?

2) Hakim and Suresh had some money in the ratio of 13:8. When they each gave away $133, Hakim will have 4 times as much money as Suresh.
How much did Hakim had at first?

Hi

You may use MD or work using units.

Mark's age ----- 1 unit
Ronald's age ----- 4 units

In 24 years' time

Ronald's age ------ 4 units + 24
Mark's age ------ 1 unit + 24

4 units + 24 ----- (2 units + 48) - 14
1 unit ----- 5

Now, Ronald's age ----- (4*5) ------ 20

Hi

Q2.. when same quantity is added or removed, the difference will remain the same...

http://i50.tinypic.com/2vwa1dj.png\">

At first, Hakim : Suresh --> 13 : 8 --> 39u : 24u (difference 15u)
In the end, Hakim : Suresh --> 4 : 1 --> 20u : 5u (difference 15u)

So, 19u --> $133, 1u --> 7

39 x 7 = 273

Hakim had $273 at first.

cheers.
