Let the present age of Rohit be "R"

Let the present age of Pradeep be "P"

$\:\:$

Given that , rohit is 5 more than twice the age of pradeep

$\:\:$

So,

$\:\:$

➜ R = 2P + 5 ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓵

$\:\:$

$\underline{\bold{\texttt{Rohit's age 6 years ago :}}}$

$\:\:$

➠ R - 6

$\:\:$

$\underline{\bold{\texttt{Pradeep's age 6 years ago :}}}$

$\:\:$

➠ P - 6

$\:\:$

Also given that , 6 years ago, age of pradeep was 1/3 of rohit's age

$\:\:$

So,

$\:\:$

➜ R - 6 = 3(P - 6)

$\:\:$

➜ R - 6 = 3P - 18

$\:\:$

➜ R = 3P - 18 + 6

$\:\:$

➜ R = 3P - 12 ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓶

$\:\:$

⟮ Putting R = 2P + 5 from ⓵ to ⓶ ⟯

$\:\:$

➜ R = 3P - 12

$\:\:$

➜ 2P + 5 = 3P - 12

$\:\:$

➜ 3P - 2P = 5 + 12

$\:\:$

➨ P = 17 ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓷

$\:\:$

• Hence the present age of Pradeep is 17 years

$\:\:$

⟮ Putting P = 17 from ⓷ to ⓵ ⟯

$\:\:$

➜ R = 2P + 5

$\:\:$

➜ R = 2(17) + 5

$\:\:$

➜ R = 34 + 5

$\:\:$

➨ R = 39

$\:\:$

• Hence present age of Rohit is 39 years
