Answer:

Andy is 4 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ruth age = 10

We need to find Andy age.

Let the age of Andy be x.

Also given Andy is two-fifths of Ruth's age.

Expressing the above statement in expression form we get

[tex]x= \frac{2}{5}\times Ruth's\ age= \frac{2}{5}\times 10 = 4[/tex]

Hence Andy is 4 years old.
