Your question is incomplete. The complete question is :-
Ajay's age is younger than that of Vijay by 5 years. The sum of their ages is 25 years. What is Ajay's present age?
Solution :-
Let the age of Vijay be x years
So, Ajay's age will be x - 5 years
The sum of their ages is 25 years
According to the given condition
x + x - 5 = 25
☛ 2x - 5 = 25
☛ 2x = 25 + 5
☛ 2x = 30
∴ x = 15
∴ Present age of Vijay ☛ x years
☛ 15 years
∴ Present age of Ajay ☛ x - 5 years
☛ 15 - 5

Your Question :
Ajay's age is younger than that of Vijay by 5 years. The sum of their ages is 25 years. Then what is Ajay's present age?
Answer :
Let the age of Vijay be x years.
So, Ajay's age = x - 5 years
As per your question,
Sum of their ages is 25 years
Now,
From the given condition,
x + x - 5 = 25
Taking (-5) to the R.H.S,
x + x = 25 + 5
2x = 30
x = 15
So, The age of Vijay is 15 years.
Ajay's age = x + 5
= 15 + 5
= 20 years.
Thus,
Age of Vijay = 15 yrs
Age of Ajay = 20 yrs.
