Four years after
son's age = 7x
daughter's age = 6x
present
son's age = 7x - 4
age of daughter = 6x - 4
if 6years ago Manisha's age is 7x - 4 + 6x - 4 = 13x - 8
present age of Manisha = 13x - 8 + 6 or 2.5(6x - 4)
13x - 2 = 15x - 10
2x = 8
x = 4
Daughter's age = 6*4 - 4 = 20
Manisha's present age = 2.5 * 20 = 50
Husband's age = 50 + 6 = 56years
