Let son age = x
Sumit age = 3x
After 5 yrs.
sumit = 3x + 5
son = x + 5
3x + 5= 5/2(x + 5)
3x + 5= 5x + 25/2
2(3x + 5) = 5x + 25
6x + 10 = 5x + 25
x = 15
son age = 15
sumit age = 15 × 3 = 45

Answer:
15,45
Step-by-step explanation:
Let summit's age be x years and his son's age be y years
According to given condition:
x=3y ..(i)
x+5= 5/2(y+5)
2(x+5) = 5y+25
2x+10= 5y+25
2x = 5y+15
Substituting value from (i)
2(3y) = 5y+15
6y=5y+15
6y-5y=15
y=15
Substituting value from (i)
x=3y
x=3*15
x=45
sumit age=45
son of sumit age=15
i hope my answer is very…very nice
