Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Rohan's age to be x
His mother's age to be y
According to question
y=x+26......(1)
Also 3 years from now ,product of their ages will be 360
So,
(x+3)(y+3)=360
Putting value of y
(x+3)(x+26+3)=360
(x+3)(x+29)=360
x^2+29x+3x+87=360
x^2+32x+87-360=0
x^2+32x-273
x^2+39x-7x-273
x(x+39)-7(x+39)
(x-7)(x+39)
x=7,-39
Age can't be in negative
So, Rohan's age is 7 year
His mother's age is (use EQ1)
y=x+26
y=7+26
32 year

❍ Let the Rohan's present age be x and Rohan Mother's present age be (x + 26) respectively.
After three years their ages,
Rohan's age = (x + 3)
Rohan Mother's age = (x + 29)

⠀
As it is given that, after three years the product of their ages (Rohan's age and Rohan Mother's present age) will be 360 years.
⠀⠀⠀
By Ignoring negative value of x. Because age can't be negative. Therefore, taking x = 7.
⠀⠀⠀
Hence,
Rohan's present age, x = 7 years.
Rohan's present age, x = 7 years.Rohan Mother's present age, (x + 26) = (7 + 26) = 33 years.
