let x is son age (present) y = daughter age (present)
given x = 2+y ; and given 3(x) + 5 = 47 (this is not present age of women)
3(2+y) + 5 = 47 ==> 3y = 36 = y = 12 (this age is five years from now )
So y age present is 12-5 = 7 ; x=2+y ==> 7+2 = 9 is the age of x
there fore present age of son 9 ,daughter 7
given x = 2+y ; and given 3(x) + 5 = 47 (this is not present age of women)
3(2+y) + 5 = 47 ==> 3y = 36 = y = 12 (this age is five years from now )
So y age present is 12-5 = 7 ; x=2+y ==> 7+2 = 9 is the age of x
there fore present age of son 9 ,daughter 7

Solution:-
• The present age of the woman is 47 - 5 = 42.
• Since the woman's age is 3 times the sum of the ages of the children,
• This sum is 42/3 = 14.
• So for children ages you have two equations:
=> s + d = 14,
=> s - d = 2.
• Every time when you see two equations like these, add them.
• You will get
=> 2s = 14 + 2,
=> 2s = 16,
=> s = 16/2 = 8.
Thus son is 8 years now.
The daughter is 8 - 2 = 6 years.
i hope it helps you.
