P and Q respectively.It is the ratio of their age 4 years AGO from the present age.Present age of P = 5x + 4Q = 6x + 4Given that sum of present age is 52.Therefore,5x + 4 + 6x + 4 = 5211x + 8 = 5211x = 44X = 4Putting X = 4, there present age of P would be 5(4) + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24Age of Q = 6(4) + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28Ratio of presents age = 24: 28 = 6: 7Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
