let sam's sister's age = x

sam's age = x + 5

4 years later,

sam's sister's age = x + 4

sam's age = x + 5 + 4 = x +9

A.T.Q

x + 9 = 2(x + 4)

x + 9 = 2x + 8

x - 2x = 8 - 9

-x = -1

cut the minus sign on both sides

x = 1

present age of sam = x +5 = 1+5 = 6 years

present age of sam's sister = x = 1 year
