Heya user ,
Here is your answer !!

Let Lalit's age be x and let his father's age be y .

So , Atq , y = 6x
=> 6x - y = 0 .... (i)

2nd case ,
y + 7 = 3 ( x + 7 )
=> y + 7 = 3x + 21
=> 3x - y = -14 .... (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii)
6x - y = 0
3x - y = -14
=> 3x = 14
=> x = 14/3 yrs = 4 yrs 8 months .

Therefore ,
y = 6* 14/3 = 28 yrs .

So , age of Lalit is 4 yrs 8 months and that of his father is 28 (Answer)

Hope it helps !!
