$\huge\sf\purple{Steps}$

Let the present age of the person be x years.

The age of the person after 18 years will be (x + 18) years.

Now,

Seven times madhav's present age = 7x.

According to the question ;

The person's age after 18 years = Seven times his present age.

➝ x + 18 = 7x

➝ 7x - x = 18

➝ 6x = 18

➝ $\sf x = \dfrac{18}{6}$

➝ $\sf\color{lime}{x = 3}$

Hence, the present age of the person is is 3 years.

Verification

➳ x + 18 = 7x

Putting the value of x in the above equation,

➳ 3 + 18 = 7 × 3

➳ 21 = 21

∴ LHS = RHS
