Step-by-step explanation:
Hey!!
Let present age of son be X years.
Age of mother = ( X + 25 ) years.
After 8 years age of son= ( X + 8 ) years.
After 8 years age of mother = ( X + 25 + 8 ) = ( X + 33 ) years.
According to the question,
X+ 8 / X + 33 = 4/9
9 ( X + 8 ) = 4 ( X + 33 )
9X + 72 = 4X + 132
9X - 4X = 132 - 72
5X = 60
X = 60/5
X = 12 years.
Present age of son = X = 12 Years.
And,
Present age of mother = X + 25 = 12 + 25 = 37 years
