Question 947470: Could you please help with this problem?
The present ages of a husband and wife are in the ratio of seven to six, and five years ago the ratio was six to five. Find their ages now.
I got this formula, but I think I'm incorrect:
+%287%2Ax-5%29%2F%286%2Ax-5%29=+%286%2A%28x-5%29%29%2F%285%2A%28x-5%29%29
this gives me an answer of +65%2F36+, but I don't think it's right.
