Answer:

Abhay= 18 years

Abhay's mother= 45 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Abhay's age be 'x'

Abhay's mother= x + 27

Their present age:

2/5 = x/x + 27

Cross multiply:-

1st:   2*x+ 2*27

= 2x + 54

2nd:   5*x

= 5x

∴5x= 2x + 54

5x-2x= 54

3x = 54

x = 54/3= 18 years

∴ Abhay = x = 18 years

Abhay's mother = x + 27 = 18 + 27= 45 years
