let Rekha's age be x
therefore her father's age would be x+27

now after 8 years
Rekhas age will be x+8
and her father's age will be X+27+8=x+35

but it is given that after 8 years Rekhas fathers age will be twice as rekhas age.

therefore

2x= x+35
2x-x = 35
x = 35
therefore Rekhas age will be 35-8 =27
and her father's age will be 70-8 =62

maths1231: answer is 46 and 19

let rekha's age be = x+8
Mr goyal's age = x+27+8=x+35
x+35= 2(x + 8)
x+35= 2x+16
35-16=2x-x
19 = x
rekha's age is = 19
19+27 = 46
Mr goyal's age is =46

maths1231: thank you very much
