Solution: At present, ratio of Meena's age and Kamla's age is `3:5` (given)
Let their ages be `3x` and `5x` years
At present, sum of Meena's age and Kamla's age is `80` (given)
`:.3x+5x=80`
`:.8x=80`
`:.x=10`
`:.` Meena's present age`=3x=30` years and Kamla's present age`=5x=50` years
`:.` Their ages after 10 years will be `40` and `60` years
`:.` Ratio of their ages `=40:60``=2:3`
`:.` 10 years hence, ratio of Meena's age and Kamla's age will be `2:3`
