Answer:

Present age of Juna = 10 years

Present age of Jubin = 16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of present ages = 5: 8

Let the present ages of:

Juna be 5x years and Jubin be 8x years

(where x is the common multiplier of the given ratios)

Four years after:

Juna's age = (5x + 4) years

Jubin's age = (8x + 4) years

According to the question:

(5x + 4) + (8x + 4) = 34

13x + 8 = 34

13x = 34 - 8

13x = 26

x = 26/13

x = 2

5x = 5*2 = 10 years

8x = 8*2 = 16 years

Hence,

Present age of Juna = 10 years

Present age of Jubin = 16 years
