Let the age of Mahesh=x
Suresh is 15 years younger than Mahesh
=X-15
As per the above assumption,
5 years ago the age of suresh=(x-15)-5
As per question,5years ago the age of Suresh 42 years
=>(x-15)-5=42
=>(x-15)=42+5=47
=>x=47+15=62 years
Hence,
The present age of Mahesh=x=62years
The present age of Suresh=x-15=62-15=47year (Ans)
