Answer:

Let the present ages of Sonaj and Manoj be 7x and 5x .

Ages after 10 years = 7x + 10 & 5x + 10

Also given , 7x+10 = 9

--------- --

5x+10 = 7

= 7 ( 7x+10)=9 ( 5x+10)

= 49x +70 = 45x + 90

= 49x-45x= 90-70

= 4x=20

x=5

7x = 7×5 = 35

5x = 5×5 = 25

The present ages of Sonal & Manoj are 35 yrs and 25 yrs respectively.
