Answer 1

Answer:

Present age of Sahail is 5 years

Present age of Sahail's Mother is 30 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Present age of Sahail = x

Present age of Sahail's Mother = 6x

After 5 years,

The age of Sahail = x + 5

The age of Sahail's Mother = 6x + 5

Also,

Sahail's age will be one third of his mothers present age

So,

⇒ x + 5 = 1/3 (6x)

⇒ x + 5 = 1/3 × 6x

⇒ x + 5 = 2x

⇒ x - 2x = - 5

⇒ - 1x = - 5

⇒ x = 5

____________________________

★ Value of 6x:

⇒ 6 (5)

⇒ 6 × 5

⇒ 30

Therefore,

Present age of Sahail is 5 years

Present age of Sahail's Mother is 30 years

Answer 2

Let ,

The age of sahail be " x "

First Condition :

The sahail's mother present age is six times sahail's present age

Thus ,

Present age of mother = 6x

Second Condition :

After five years , sahail's age will be one third of his mothers present age

Thus ,

6x/3 = x + 5

2x = x + 5

2x - x = 5

x = 5

$\sf \therefore \underline{The \: present \: ages \: of \: sahail \: and \: her \: mother \: is \: 5 \: years \: 30 \: years }$
