Answer 2

Answer:

Deepak's present age=12 years

His mother's age = 36 years

Step by Step Explanation:

Let Deepak's present age be = x years

So , His mother's age = 3x years

6 years ago,

Deepak's age = x-6

Mother's age=3x-6

or , 5(x-6) = 3x-6

0r , 5x-30 = 3x-6

or , 5x = 3x-6+30

or , 5x = 3x-24

or , 5x- 3x = 24

or , 2x=24

or , x= 24/2 = 12

∴  Deepak's present age = x= 12 years

   His mother's present age = 3x =  3 X 12 = 36 years
