Answer 2

Answer:

Let Shobo's present age be x

let mother's present age be y

By the given condition

shobo's mother's present age is six times shobo's present age.

y=3x..........(I)

By the given condition

shobo' age five years from now will be one third of his mother's present age.

Five years from now let Shobo's age be (x+5) years

Five years from now let mother's age be (y+5) years

The equation : x+5=1/3(y+5)

3 (x+5)=y+5

3x+15=y+5

3x - y= (-15)+5

3x - y=( -10).................(ii)

Substitute the value of y from (i) in (ii)

you will get the answer
