Answer:
Current age = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let bhargav 's present age be x
equation -> x + 15 = 5 times ( × - 5 )
x = 15 - 5 , x = 10
10 + 15 = 25 which is 5 times ( x - 5 )
= 10 - 5 = 5 , which when 5 times is equal to age of his after 15 years ( 25 )

Correct Question :-
Bhargav age after 15 years will be 5 times his age 5 years back. Find the present age of bhargav.
Answer :-
The present age of Bhargav is 10 years.
Solution :-
Let the present age of l Bhargav be 'x' years
Bhargav's age after 15 years = (x + 15) years
Bharhav's age 5 years back = (x - 5) years
Given
Bhargav's age after 15 years = 5 times Bharhav's age 5 years back
⇒ (x + 15) = 5(x - 5)
⇒ x + 15 = 5x - 25
⇒ 15 + 25 = 5x - x
⇒ 40 = 4x
⇒ 40/4 = x
⇒ 10 = x
⇒ x = 10
Therefore the present age of Bhargav is 10 years.
