Answer:

\huge{\underline{\underline{\mathfrak{Answer\::}}}}

Current age of son = 6 years.

\bold\green{Solution\::}

Let the current age of his son be x years and Aman's current age be 6x years.

_________________________

After 6 years, Aman's age will be : 6x + 6

After 6 years, his son's age will be : x + 6

According to question:-

(6x+6) : (x+6) = 7 : 2

=> (6x + 6)/(x+6) = 7/2

=> 7(x + 6) = 2 (6x+6)

=> 7x + 42 = 12x + 12

=> 7x - 12x = 12 - 42

=> -5x = - 30

=> x = -30/-5

=> x = 6

___________________________

Current age of his son = x = 6 years.

Current age of Aman = 6x = 6×6 =36 years

 \underline \mathbb{SOLUTION}

 \underline \mathbb{LET,}

The current age of his son be x years and Aman's age be 6 years.

 \underline \mathbb{ATQ,}

After 6 years Aman's age will be 6x + 6 and after 6 years his son's age is x + 6 years.

 =  > (6x +6):(x + 6) = 7:2

 =  >  \frac{(6x + 6)}{x + 6}  =  \frac{7}{2}

 =  > 7(x + 6) = 2(6x + 6)

 =  > 7x + 42 = 12x + 12

 =  > 7x + 42 = 12x + 12

 =  >  - 5x =  - 30

 =  > x =  \frac{ - 30}{ - 5}

 =  > x = 6

 \underline \mathbb{ANSWER; x=6yrs }

AGE OF SON = 6 yrs

AGE OF AMAN = 6×6 = 36 yrs
