Present age of Swetha according to the question conditions is 25 years.

Given :

Father's age is double that Rahul - 10 years back

Rahul's age = 5 + Swetha's age

The current age of Father = 50 years

To Find :

The current age of Swetha

Solution :

Let the present of Father, Rahul, and Swetha be denoted as "F", "R" and "S".

Given in the question, 10 years back the Father's age was double that of Rahul.

       Equation 1 : ( F - 10) = 2(R-10)

                             F - 10 = 2R - 20

                             F = 2R - 10

Also, it is given that Rahul is 5 years older than her sister Swetha.

      Equation 2 :  R = S + 5

Combining Equation 1 and Equation 2 to find S :

                        F = 2R - 10

                        F = 2(S+5) - 10

                        F = 2S + 10 - 10\\

                        F = 2S

Thus, the age of Father is twice the age of Swetha. As the current age of Father is 50, the current age of Swetha is :

                      S = 50/2

                          = 25

Thus, the present age of Swetha is 25 years.
