Let the present age of Mahesh be x

Anita is twice as old as Mahesh

so present age of Anita is 2x

before ten years

Anita age = 2x - 10 years

Mahesh's age = x - 10 years

by the condition given in your question we get equation

( 2x - 10 ) = ( X - 10 ) 7

2x - 10 = 7x - 70

70 - 10 = 7x - 2x

5x = 60

x = 12 years

so the age of Mahesh is 12 years and the age of Anita is 24 years
