here is your answer
Suppose present age of of Vijay be y years.
present age of sushma = (y+15) years.
three years ago age of Vijay= (y-3) years.
three years hence age of sushma =(y+15+3) years.
A/Q
(Y + 18) = 8( Y-3)
y+18 = 8y-24
8y-y = 18+24
7y = 42
y=42/7 = 6 years
present age of Vijay =x=6 years
&
present age of sushma =x+15=6+15=21 years.
Hope it helps you ^_^
