Answers
Step-by-step explanation: shobas age - x
shobas mothers age -y
6 x = y - a
x + 5 = 1/3 * y
3{ x + 5} = y
3x + 15 = y - b
from a and b
3x + 15 = 6x
15 = 3x
x = 15/3
x =5
shobas present age = 5yrs
shobas mothers present age = 6x = 30yrs

Answer:
Shobo's mother's present age is six times shobo's present age.Shobo's age five years from now will be one third of his mother's present age.What are their present ages?
Let Shobo's present age as x years.
then mother's age will be 6x years.
After 5 years,Shobo's age will be (x+5) years.
x+5=6x×⅓
1x+5=2x
x-2x=-5
-1x=-5
x=-5/-1
(By cutting subtract)
x=5
∴Shobo's mother age=x=5 years.
and mother's age=6x=6(5)=30 years.
